Good selection of AP classes. Wish the school taught Asian languages as electives.

The district has become a bad combination of the old guard that won't let go and unprepared administrators. Compare the advanced degrees of the administration with other local districts and you will find it woefully lacking. There is not enough experience in key positions and too much dead weight in jobs simply because they are grads of PISD. I would move my family if I could sell my house.

I have had three children and two step children graduate from Pflugerville High School. They spent their entire careers in the district. For the most part Pflugerville offers a decent education, except for the Special Ed students. I believe they don't prepare these students to function outside the system. Also, my experience with the teachers and principles has been somewhat disappointing. They are not open to input from parents especially if they don't hear it as praise. Questioning or criticism is not taken very well. Extracurricular activities are fairly decent, the band used to be very good, much better than now. The coaching staff are very full of themselves. They really think they are greater than they are.

My son was a freshman 2006-2007. Dress code is extreme.

I have a senior at Pflugerville High School and am very concerned with the direction that the school is headed. The teachers are either slow or unresponsive to emails and phone calls. In the 4 years that my child has attended this school, it has went from a wonderful school to a school in trouble. I would definitely not recommend this school.

Teachers and administrators take great interest in student acheivement and success. My step-daughter has just graduated this school with 13 years of Pflugerville ISD behind her. PISD has prepared her VERY well for her college career! I am now just starting my son in Kindergarten this year.

I am very disappointed in the schools process and attitude of the educators. In open house they want you to feel they are really interested in your child. If a child is having difficulties the parent isn't notified. The counselor never contacts the parent. When you contact the school or teacher the report always appears the child is to bad and horrible never does this or that. But the parent never get a report or a call from the school. Why is that. It always appears to be the Childs fault. Children are afraid to report things to the parents for fear if they go to the school it will be retaliation.

Disorganization seems to be the key to Pflugerville Independent School District as a general rule, not just PHS! Hopefully a new superintendent will be able to whip the district into shape as a competitive, well organized, well run and innovative disctrict with schools and teachers, ceasing to holding on to so much 'tradition' that they can not change to come into the 21st century and acccept the fact that the city of Pflugerville is no longer a small, little, close knit town!

This is the most disorganized school I have ever seen. Enrollment was a nightmare. Teachers have very poor communication and don't return phone calls or emails. My child moved here from a difficult situation and we have had nothing but problems ever since. My child and I are both very unhappy.
