Sophomore: I love Harriton High School. Most teachers are helpful, but the classes here are rigorous. The art displayed around the school is especially lovely because it showcases the talented young artists throughout the school. The administration hears the students' recommendations, like our wellness days. The teachers here really push you to do your best, and they offer help if you do poorly. Although the school is mainly caucasian, they recognize minorities in our daily announcements. Black Student Union (BSU), Asian culture club, GSA, and other inclusive clubs are invited to speak every morning. The culture at Harriton is competitive; everyone expects each other to get A's, go to prestigious universities, captain clubs, etc. And most students end up in those universities.

Middle School Student: I had a bit of a hard time throughout middle school, but I really enjoyed the theater and chorus programmes. There are some great teachers! I loved how Welsh Valley offered Artifacts, Waterbound, and ViewPoints to kids who learn better with experience. The library is very nice too! Having a time at the end of the day to do homework is very useful. One thing to be aware of is the fact that there are a lot of children who are depressed and it can get kinda stressful, as someone who had a friend who needed a lot of help. Also, there sometimes is an issue with bullying, but overall, Welsh Valley is a good school with great teachers!... Read 8 reviews
