This school is okay. Just alot of drama and the sports are terrible. Some teachers should not have got the job to be a teacher or work at PVHS. Academic programs are okay . Athletic programs are not okay. Band is probably the best thing at Park View.

Staff is very nice this school gets a bad rap because of all the lie which are told by other schools when your the most diverse high school in the county and when most of your students are NOT WHITE the school is very nice
