After one year my son has had enough and is going back to his school for multiple issues this year that weren't addressed properly. Also the pick up after school is an absolute joke complete madness they really need to get a better system... oh I don't know maybe open up the other exit so it's not so congested. Just a thought

If I could give Penta zero stars, I would. My daughter currently goes there, and I'm quite sure that none of the staff have formal educations. The level of stupidity that emanates from those people is unbelievable. Unreal. Before my daughter came to Penta, she was told that if she didn't like her program, she could always switch the next year. Now they're saying she can't. She got extremely sick from the school lunch one day; and honestly, I wasn't sure if it was the school or the Texas Roadhouse we had the night before. But the next day she was at lunch, and the kids were all pointing at some kid's tray who had a whole maggot crawling out of the salad. I reported it to the Vice Principal, he didn't care. Today I got an alert on my phone saying that my daughter had a half day excuse to leave school. I called the school to inquire about the text and they said that they got a call from me stating that I was coming to pick my child up. I never called them. They are so disorganized. I'm sure they just clicked on any name on the computer and my daughter just happened to be that person. I reported that to the Vice principal. He didn't care. His response was giving: "we might be human traffickers vibes." And I know my daughter has made friends, but I really want to pull her from this school. Someone's gonna get hurt or kidnapped because those people don't care. They are simply place holders. All of them. Soaking up city dollars and showing up for a check. Those people should NOT be in education.

The lunch portions are so tiny that I leave lunch hungry everyday, and have to eat a second lunch when I get home just to make it to dinner. After eating lunch my stomach will still grumble in my other classes

Went to Penta for HAVC. The teacher, there was very unprofessional, and had no idea how to teach a class. I let the staff know about it and they told me he’s in a rookie teacher, but we’re gonna give him suggestions on how to do things but my money could not be refunded. So they’re gonna continue to take your money knowing that this teacher doesn’t know how to teach a class. In the meantime, you will not be getting a good education there. Watch it with the HVAC program they have a high turnover rate.

No good. They act like recording a wrestling match that was all for fun and wasn’t serious is gonna give penta a bad reputation when the whole staff is lying and the school is not as good as it seems the welding lab specifically speaking is nothing but a farce, I would not recommend joining the welding lab with mr Thomas he makes false accusations towards his students. They also punish students over the dumbest things like being on your phone at lunch that student was served with a suspension. the overall school is a lie and isn’t as good as the talk it up to be.

Complete lack of communication with this school. No preparation emails regarding upcoming school year or events that are occurring. Nothing provided as to what our students need to be admitted to specific programs. As a result of a medical concern, my student struggled throughout the school year and significantly at the end. Absolutely no communication from the teachers or office staff. One teacher (now retired) told me "they should know what to do in the case of not attending class in person". Only one other teacher responded and was the only one with compassion. Once a diagnosis was provided, absolutely no aid was provided and my student was denied additional services or testing (for IEP). Even now my student failed 2 classes. I happen to keep up with their grades, but NO ONE from the school ever contacted me about these concerning behaviors nor advised us as to what our options were to make up these classes. Severely disappointed with such a highly rated school.

I went to school here a really really long time ago. Had it not been for the clerical specialist program teaching me how to type I think law school would have been a lot more difficult. Penta has always been a practical hands on school.
