"City High has to be one of the best; if not, the best high school in the greater Pittsburgh area. I have two sons who attend/attened City High who I am proud to say have excelled beyond what I ever would have imagined. I highly recommend City High to any parent who expects nothing more than excellence from their educational system."

"When it comes to the community City High deserves 6/5 stars. Really we are like one big family and everyone watches out for each other and its great. When it comes to teachers and their involvement with students City High deserves an equally high score. Each student usually becomes extremely close with at least one teacher, who they can go to if they have problems and who they can trust. But when it comes to academics City High is really ify. In 9th grade you are basically babied. I was doing work that I had already completed in middle school and even before that. The biggest problem is the City High math curriculum. IMP has to be one of the worst programs, the school would benefit greatly by switching to a traditional math program. The best program is the English program, the others fall in between but all could use improvement."

"Hello my name is Laylah Brown and I am going to be a student in this wonderful school this year. I have heard alot of great things about City High and I cannot wait to start my 4 years at this school, not only is the school, but the location is to. This location can show how responsible a 14 year old person can be. Thank you and see you soon City High."

"City Charter High does a much better job of preparing young people for life and careers than the ctiy schools. They truly care about their students and give them 'real world' experiences. City High keeps their young adults on track while keeping their self-esteem in tact."
