Constellation Schools: Parma Community Middle & High

"Great place. friendly staff!"

"My kids have been going to constellation schools their whole life. I wouldn't send them anywhere else. The staff is helpful and they always try and fix any problem that might arise."

"I am very happy with my experience at PCHS. The faculty at this school are all very helpful, the students make a positive learning environment and the entire school has a great hard-working character and a strong passion for success. The small class sizes no only help the students to not get lost in the mix, but it also makes a tight-knit family for each grade as well as for the entire school altogether. The school does require a payment for a student to be able to attend, as this school is a charter school. However, the price is very reasonable. Plus, each teacher provides all of the appropriate supplies (folders, pencils, etc.) FOR FREE. The school is also very clean and well-kept on the inside. Altogether, this school is a great public school choice for the local communities of Parma, Parma Hts., Seven Hills, Old Brooklyn, and Westpark and can be a great alternative for students who need accommodations to their IEPs/504's. Overall, I am extremely pleased with all of the services that were done for me by the hard-working and dedicated staff as well as my great high school experience for these past 4 years with amazing classmates, and I am so happy to be a graduate of this school in 2016!! I recommend this school to all!!!"

"I have very mixed opinions about this school. I know there's no such place where there will be a perfect experience, but I am really half and half about PCS. This school has many good teachers who educate differently; nice ones, strict ones, funny ones, boring ones, etc. But some of the staff here can be legitimately rude, even outside of class. They don't give out a lot of homework and give us students a learning pace at our own levels (especially for those with IEPs/504s), which is something that I personally like about this school. I understand that since its a charter school that it needs to stay small and there can only be a limited amount of students to attend per class per year. However, if there's a student who needs a lot of academic support and his/her parents or guardians don't want to resort to sending their child to a public high school or doing online schooling and can't get them into a private or Catholic high school, this may be the only choice for that student. So if they don't get accepted so that they can get the high school education plus the special attention he/she needs, what happens after that? This school really helps out students with special needs to more easily graduate high school, but why should there be a worry of that student not even getting accepted there? Also, not to be the "beacon of darkness" here, but if you are a student who's planning on going here soon and don't want drama, heed my warning when I say be REALLY careful about the classes you pick. I understand there's petty and stupid drama in every high school all around the world, but my main point being is that there are certain classes a student can take where it's chock-full of drama and others where it's really not so bad. It also depends on who's in these classes, but also depends on what class it is in general and what the culture of that class is like. Overall, I can't complain about my experience at PCS so far, and I really think this is a good well-run school and I would recommend it to others, but just remember to lower your expectations because you never know what you'll get here."
