    Upper St. Clair School District Reviews

    Overall, my experience in Upper st. Clair has been good. The teachers seem to care about their students, for the most part. The middle schools try new programs and learning techniques often to help the students. In High School, most students are encouraged to go to college, which may not be good for all students. There are vocational schools which students can attend in addition to going to school. The school offers several ways to improve SAT and ACT scores, which helps with the application process for further education. Overall I feel prepared for college. The school is not very diverse, but they try to be progressive.
