School Reviews
| 2 Pioneer is a joke!! Doesnt prep students for real life. Is way too relaxed about laziness and attendance and grades. More worried about length of shorts than important matters. Needs to address drugs and underage drinking more! hash bash is glorified.... - Posted by Student/Alumni - rabbi |
