I’m a sophomore at PHS. I’ve been in the district since first grade at Havens. My family continues to choose Piedmont schools because of the strong academics and sense of belonging that sets this community apart from others. My dad grew up in Piedmont, and my parents decided to settle down here after they lived on the East Coast for a few years.
In my 10 years as a student in the district, Piedmont schools have provided a challenging academic environment, coupled with a strong support system surrounding students with many resources and opportunities. Outside of the classroom, the schools reflect pride and spirit in the community through Friday night football games, musicals, concerts, and other events that bring students, families, and residents together. Combined, these experiences help build a lasting sense of connection that defines Piedmont.
The passing of measure H is crucial to the continuation of academic challenges and community experiences that students have come to appreciate. These opportunities not only support student learning, but also help foster the sense of connection and pride that defines Piedmont schools. To continue supporting positive student experiences like mine, please consider voting yes on Measure H.
