Posted By: student Quality Score: 1 2008-11-12 “Purvis High School definitely did not prepare me for college. The choice of classes are abysmal, this school only has the basics in subject areas.” Posted By: student Quality Score: 2 2008-11-06 “I found that i was not taught the skills necessary to be a college student. The lack of organization and total lack of leadership in the school really prevents students from gaining the education they deserve.” Posted By: student Quality Score: decline 2008-05-01 “Omg i love Purvis High School its like a great place to be because they are friendly and they dont look at you different its like your all the same.” Posted By: student Quality Score: 5 2008-04-15 “Purvis High is an amazing school, and is worth any students time. I'm glad that I'm being taught here, all the teachers are very kind and they actually care about you. There's enough students to where each teacher knows the students personally.” Posted By: former student Quality Score: 4 2006-04-22 “I loved going to Purvis High as it was a such a small school that the teachers and administrative staff really got to know the students and understand their needs. It did lack in 'advanced' classes and I found myself taking really basic courses as a senior just to make the required hours, but overall I was happy there and did feel that the teachers were always willing to work with me and help me in my goals. I loved the tight-knit community/family feeling I had there.”
