Alum: I think that the academics were great. I learned a lot, especially I the science and math fields. I was not a huge fan of the fact that I had to take a music class for the first two years, but that was okay in the end.... Read 2 reviews

Senior: It was overall a good experience. I received good education, and many people I met were very friendly. There are some downsides though. It may sound silly, but Hampton is very bad at regulating temperature in their schools. It will be 10 degrees outside, and it will feel like 50 inside. I am not alone on this, everyone else is shivering around me as well. I have Raynaud's, meaning my fingers and toes go numb easily in cold. My fingers often turn white in school. Unless it is 70 or above outside, it is unbearably cold inside the building. It makes it impossible to concentrate on class since my body naturally prioritizes my health. If I am in pain because of the temperature, I am not able to focus properly on anything else besides keeping myself warm.... Read 231 reviews

Parent: North Hills Middle School has an excellent gifted program. It far exceeds all the other public school programs in Allegheny County. Their program is tailored to meet the diverse interests of each gifted child. Students are surveyed regarding learning styles and interest levels. Once all the student's information is gathered, the gifted teachers then diligently produce highly rated programs, activities, and competitions for all. All of my children have gone through the North Hills Gifted Program. Each one has flourished into a high-achieving intrinsically motivated successful professional. I highly recommend the North Hills School District for anyone in search of the finest gifted program in Allegheny County.... Read 2 reviews

Senior: North Hills Senior High School has treated me well through my years in attendance. My teachers are always willing to help me, and almost every AP and college level course I have wanted to take has been available to me. By taking these classes, I am always surrounded by others who are hard working. I do know that there are many less committed students, and their decisions definitely cannot go unnoticed. However, most altercations are shut down fairly quickly, and all of the staff works hard to make sure nothing bad is happening both in between and during class.... Read 384 reviews

Middle School Student: I have been a student at ECS from K-8. I cannot stress enough the how amazing and beneficial the staff have been. Every. Single. Teacher. I’ve had has been radically committed to the mission of this school (except one but dont worry). Daily I see teachers speaking on the same level as students and genuinely listening to their needs. The motto “we grow citizens” is exactly what is happening in this environment. Not only is the school devoted to cultivating learning that is beneficial for the future for students, teaching empathy and compassion, they also have lots of cool plants around each campus :). One of my most recent math teachers was one of the most influential people I have encountered in my 14 year life. He taught me so much about how to be compassionate, devoted, and vulnerable. Not only that, he taught about the deepest workings of math and encouraged students to ask questions and explore. ECS is filled with incredible teachers like this. Amazing environment for your child... Read 10 reviews

Senior: I’m a senior at City High and I’ve been the since 2016. The my teachers are awesome and easy to understand and most of them traveled with use from Freshman year to Senior year! In all classes we discuss real world issues and evaluate it through literature, mathematics, world history, and etc. We have digital work and tech classes. We learn how to build our futures and accomplish our goals from day one. There’s a lot to say about CCHS, but most importantly it’s just a please where you can grow with your peers and teachers!...

Parent: Please do not let this school's academic score fool you. Provident Charter School is designed to cater to children with Dyslexia and other learning issues, so of course the students do not score as high on standardized tests as typical learners. I can not say enough good things about this school. My very intelligent child finally realizes his potential. He no longer thinks of himself as different or not as smart. The teachers here are incredible at developing each child's abilities. My son started in third grade but he was reading at a high kindergarten level. In fourth grade he began reading at grade level and was also at grade level or above in all of his subjects. Provident offers small class sizes, specialized reading instruction daily, highly qualified teachers, Taekwondo, a full gymnasium, and more. The only negative thing that I can say is that I wish the school would consider offering high school rather than ending with eighth grade.... Read 1 review
