- This school is HORRIBLE! i went to this school during my 10th grade year in 2007-2008 i use to love school up until i transferred to PH i ended up DROPPING OUT of school because of the problems i was having with the staff and students.there wasn't 1 week where we didn't have a lock down there was MULTIPLE fights EVERYDAY there are so many students and not enough hall patrol to comtaion the halls. The teachers are terrible i actually had a teacher slam her hands onto my desk and tell me that my best friend that died actually deserved to die because he was drugged. There is a staff member there that makes an agreement that if a student gives him 3 cigarettes he will let that student leave the campus to go smoke one cigarette. This school is very inappropriate for any child i do not and would not and never have recommend this school to ANYONE! if you would like to know more from a 1st hand experience. thank you and have a blessed day.

- This school is terrible. Absolutely awful. Between the white kids getting treated differently, and the violence. My daughter cannot stand this school, and if I could, I would transfer her.
Do NOT send your kids to this hell of a school.

- This school discriminates against the white kids terribly, and there the minority. The other students get treated specialy just because of there color.

- Horrid school. I can't even express how bad the teaching is there. The teachers do not care what the students do. I've seen multiple kids intoxicated during school hours. Not a good school at all.

- Patrick Henry is a great school. I'm a sophomore this year, class of 2011. I love it! Just look at the student section during a football game. We may be losing but the student section is as hype as ever! My parents and I have been very impressed with the communication of the teachers and school overall. The counselors are slammed with complaints but have never ignored a request or call from myself or my parents. I took Center 9 as a freshman and this year am in both Center 10 and Governors School. I've had nothing but offers to help and e-mail with questions from PH each year. Sorry you haven't had as much assistance and Patriot Pride as I have.

- I am not impressed with this school. My son is a freshman this school year and is having a very hard time adjusting to high school. He was on the honor roll until this year. He went from honor roll to making F's. I have had teacher conferences in which most of his was not available and they left notes stating to sign in and they would return your call or e-mail you and they never do. I have also tried to contact his counselor, numerous times and they don't even return your calls, so I suggest to any parent, don't send your kid here, they will get lost in the system.
