Rating 4.16 out of 5 19 reviews
The school district demonstrates exemplary communication with parents, consistently ensuring that crucial information is readily accessible and actively engaging in open dialogue. With a firm foundation built on strong principles, the district wholeheartedly commits itself to providing high-quality education to its students. However, it could further enhance its support for special education by investing additional resources and implementing specialized programs to better cater to the unique needs of students with disabilities. Overall, this district shines as an exemplar in fostering parent-school relationships and upholding educational principles, but there is room for growth in the realm of special education.
Derry Township is a diverse community with top-notch faculty and a nice facility. The academics are great and the administration is wonderful!
