We love Vines! My oldest who is now a senior at PSHS attended and our youngest is a freshman there now. The advisors in counseling are amazing and the teachers keep up the rigor while having patience. Vines has school spirit and has been a great choice for us.

This school is okay but the people running the Sped department aren't amazing but the actual sped teachers are decent and the new SRO has really cleaned this school up yet school security harasses people left and right.

I enrolled my 2 kids to this school and It was ok the first three weeks then my kids would come home saying teacher were being rude to them. I went up there and everyone was just so rude. I am a mother and the amount of disrespect was unbearable. I think Plano schools are overrated they get way more credit then deserved. Try Allen your kids are better there I promise
