My daughter is a freshman this year at Preston High and she just loves the school. The work is hard but if you work hard you can do it. She is involved in sports and other clubs and has met so many new friends. It is a pleasure to see my daughter do so well in her first year. I have met with her teachers and they all have nice things to say about her. I would for sure suggest to at least take a look at the school. Each child is different and will thrive if she is involved. Close Quote

About Student-Teacher Ratio

Student/teacher ratio is calculated by dividing the total number of students by the total number of full-time equivalent teachers. Please note that a smaller student/teacher ratio does not necessarily translate to smaller class size. In some instances, schools hire teachers part time, and some teachers are hired for specialized instruction with very small class sizes. These and other factors contribute to the student/teacher ratio. Note: For private schools, Student/teacher ratio may not include Pre-Kindergarten.
