School Reviews:
October 27,2012 - This school is pretty good, but run very poorly. The administration is blind to student recomendations. The school is very biased in many aspects, and it fails to help students threw the college application processes.*-Posted by Student/Alumni *
December 17,2011 - Providence is a wonderful high school my daughter just loves it.*-Posted by Parent *
