Sophomore: The community is incredible - teachers will genuinely care about you individually and its goal is to make everyone feel included. It is a quaker school, but it's not overly religious. There's Meeting for Worship every week, but it's a nice time to connect with other students and faculty and relax.

2 Best Christian High Schools in Pennsylvania
Freshman: I have been offered opportunities that would not have been available to me anywhere else. The academics at EA have been challenging and thought provoking over the years. Teachers since early on have been accommodating to students of all different capacities. EA provides the tools to grow as a student. The various courses I've been offered in my experience have enriched my passion to learn. As early as 6th grade I was able to chose a modern language. I selected French and now I have an additional course, Latin, to my schedule. Student Council is not the only leadership group at EA community. Other groups are community service board, domino board (theatre leadership), Diversity board, and Vestry (Chapel Council). My favorite part of Episcopal is the community. I consider my class, 2020, my family. I cannot picture myself with a more brilliant group of people. When I started typing this, it formed into 3,000 words about why I love EA. Niche made me summarize into 1000 characters.

3 Best Christian High Schools in Pennsylvania
Junior: Friends' Central is an amazing school! The teachers are great, they really do want you to succeed. They are always available to meet with you for any reason, and are willing to do so even before/ after the normal school day. Students work hard but are never snobby or aggressively competitive. I without a doubt will continue the friendships with people I have met at FCS years past graduation.

Alum: My decision to attend George School was the best one I've ever made. Not only are the teachers so invested in your education, but they also want to get to know you on the personal level. The campus is gorgeous and the facilities are amazing, most notably the Fitness and Athletic Center (est. 2014) and the MDA Library (2011? Maybe 2009?). This school offers so many activities for students to participate in, whether it be clubs, sports, or themed-weekends (every weekend is themed). George School is my second home!

Alum: I went to Westtown from day care to 12th grade. The boarded experience was hands down the best thing I've ever done. The Quaker education and experience blended with the boarding experience to create an atmosphere where I felt safe, cared for, and supported. I really cannot say enough about this school. I know I have made friends I will love forever at this school, and I cannot wait to go back for reunions! It was a life-shaping and life-changing experience, and I can't imagine my life without it. It was truly a family there.

7 Best Christian High Schools in Pennsylvania
Senior: Wyoming Seminary is a great school in Northeastern Pennsylvania. The academics at Sem are very challenging and the community is one of the best things that this school has. The area in which the school is located is not the best and for that reason there are not many things to do outside campus. However, the teachers and staff are always making sure that there are fun activities to do during the weekends to keep you entertained. The people here is just wonderful, very friendly and very welcoming, as well as very supportive. Sport events tend to bring an incredible amount of people to support their fellow classmates and students. One of the best things about SEM is the personal relationship you can build with teachers and how much you can learn outside the classroom. If I had to go through my secondary school education again, I would choose SEM.

Junior: I'll start off by saying that while it has its flaws this school overall is entirely worth its tuition costs and is worth seriously considering for preparing yourself or your child for college. "I never thought anywhere could be so including and welcoming towards me" said an incoming junior. The best part of this school is the community atmosphere. There is zero bullying and everyone feels like they belong in some way or another. Students go out of their way to support others who need help and make sure their classmates have everything they need to succeed and be satisfied in life.

Alum: I attended AFS since I was in kindergarten and I graduated in 2013. I love the teachers, and the environment that AFS provided me, as well as introduced me to different perspectives and opinions. The people that I met during my time there have definitely changed my life, and helped me become the person I am today. Yes, the student body was small, and some people give me strange looks about learning about Quaker values, however, the skills I learned at AFS (both academically and emotionally/mentally) are ones that I will have for the rest of my life, and have made a lasting impression in daily life.

Senior: One thing I absolutely love about this school is the size - which amounts to 200 students in total. It's so easy to get involved, start clubs, become a "big fish", and make lasting connections with students and faculty. If I had gone to another prestigious boarding school with a competitive academic environment and a larger student body , I don't think I would able to grow as I have here. Additionally, the tuition is extremely affordable for everyone!

Freshman: Applying to high school, I was a little concerned about leaving all of my friends from middle school who were going elsewhere. But I was excited to start at Friends Select, which felt like home from the open house. I couldn't have made a better decision—I have made amazing friends, am enjoying the refreshingly challenging classes, and feel completely accepted every day I go to school. I have maintained some friendships from middle school, and those friends fit perfectly in my new group at school. The teachers are exceptional and always willing to help or discuss ideas. The classes are fun, interactive, and flexible while remaining rigorous. There's a strong sense of community among the students, teachers, and administrators. I couldn't love a school more.

Parent: We love Phil-Mont Christian Academy for the way in which the faculty teach, engage and challenge our children regarding their understanding of God, themselves and the world around them. Teachers at Phil-Mont are devoted to teaching K-12 from the perspective of a Christian world-and-life view and to think God's thoughts after him. It's impossible to find this kind of Christian education anywhere else in the Delaware Valley. It's not merely Christians educating my child, it's actually a Christian education. Refreshing.

Parent: Dock Mennonite Academy is an excellent school with an academically diverse population. Some of the students are receiving learning support, while others are graduating and going to Princeton or state school honors programs. I've been very impressed with the quality of education, and care given by teachers to students. I have seen many teachers go well beyond what is expected for students. The opportunities that students have to be involved in things like athletics, arts day, musicals or dramas, or choir provide a significant difference for students in these formative high school years. My wife and I both love Dock Mennonite Academy!

Parent: The teachers are caring, committed individuals who have a genuine interest in the students. There are significant team building activities to help the students learn how to work as part of a larger group. They also have "prep for life" Fridays where they learn skills necessary for successful adult life (ironing, balancing a check book, fine dining, cooking, self defense).

High School Senior: ANC is a small school with a total student population of around 300. It is based off the core values of New Church teachings and these are woven into every course. Some students may find this frustrating at times but in the end, the religious and spiritual aspects have brung our education to a deeper level, learning how to apply the concepts we learn to this life and the next.

ANC is a private boarding school and this creates a very unique atmosphere. Approximately half the students commute and half live on campus. The commuter students are able to spend time in the dormitories or the school property any time. I would compare our school to a liberal arts college. You are getting a taste of everything: science, math, art, literature, languages etc. There are also other ways to get involved with academic or other extracurricular activities outside the classroom. We have a community service club; two fraternities and two sororities that focus on building relationships, service and are another way to spend time with your fellow students.

The arts and athletics are also a huge part of the school. I would not be surprised if everyone in the school has at least done one sport in their high school career. Our teams have won countless championships and gone to national tournaments. It is more than winning though. We all want to support each other and going to sports games are one of the most entertaining ways to do that! Another way is through the performing arts. We have a play and a musical every year. I have participated in these for most of my years at ANC and they have given me memories I will never forget.

Of course every school has its downsides. There is the occasional annoying teacher. We do have a uniform and a social dresscode we must follow when we go to any school event. These have posed some conflicts evidently. However, Each and everyday I feel welcome and at home in my school and I have made many memories that I will cherish for years to come.

Niche User: Overall, I definitely loved this school. It's a small school, so it's easy for everyone to know everyone and become a family. Although people still had their friend groups, people were willing to accept anyone if they wanted to sit with them at lunch. My favorite part of TCA would definitely be the high school retreats because it was such an experience to go to a camp ground and talk to people who you've never talked to before, chill out, play games, and also worship with other believers. This school is like no other because it's so welcoming and less judgmental than any public school. Even though it's mainly a place for believers of Christ (hence, The Christian Academy), any religion can go there and feel welcomed and hopefully through times of worship and bible classes be brought to Christ.

Recent Alumnus: The school as far as the teachers and the academics was great. They cared a lot for the students and I was very well prepared going into college. The athletics were not so great but that was simply because it is a small school and it harder to get enough people to play sports, and therefore has a low competition level compared to other schools.

High School Sophomore: My favorite experiences include the relationships I have built with my friends and teachers. This school is unique because the way the students are classically educated is different than the vast majority of schools. I would choose this school again because it has made me the person I am today and I would not change one part of the way these teachers have helped raised me.

Niche User: While many of my friends at college harp on the awful years they spent in high school, there is little I would change about my experience. Being practically raised at LCS (from preschool to graduation) I developed deep, lasting relationships with teachers, fellow classmates, and coaches. Over a year has passed since I graduated, and I still get emails from past teacher and go over to have dinner with my old coaches. Athletics dominated my high school career, so naturally many of my favorite experiences revolve around that area. The volleyball program is excellent. The coaches are knowledgeable, and make practices successful and productive without being slave drivers. The homecoming basketball games followed by the court was always highly anticipated. And naturally, the awards banquet at the end of each year was a fantastic way to highlight and cap that year's seasons.
