Overall, I loved Plymouth High School when I went here! There are some really great teachers, the student body is pretty good, and there are so many activities. Plymouth High School is located in a conveniently-located park, where there are three schools, where students could have classes in any of the three schools. Overall, Plymouth High School is a really good choice!
