(5 / 5) Flag as inappropriate - I graduated PHS in 1973 and to me it was the best place to go to school back then. It was small and very community oriented. In my graduating class we had 120 students. I felt that I had a well rounded education and that the foster/glocester regional school district was far advanced then any other district in the state at the time.
