"We Change Lives"

South Hills Changes Lives

When you walk through the front door at South Hills , you will see this plaque "We Change Lives" on the front desk. Changing students' lives is something South Hills has been doing for over forty years. Ask anyone who has graduated or attended classes.

The most important sound we hear is our name. The staff and teachers call students by their first name as they meet them in the hallways or in class. The classes are small, so students get one-on-one instruction. The school provides a hands-on environment where students perform the kind of work like they would in a work environment. Beautiful art creations by graphic art students line both sides of the hallways from the lobby to the classrooms.

Why am I so excited to share all of this with you? I am a student in the Administrative Professional (AP) program at South Hills. I have experienced the hands-on teaching and have learned how to use Microsoft Word and give presentations in PowerPoint. One of the reasons I love South Hills so much is because the teachers put so much effort to help each of us individually to be the best students we can be. They listen to our concerns. They truly care about each and every one of us.




Please listen to the inspiring video by Mr. Mike Gates.
