The competitiveness is just because everyone expects the best from you and wants you to excel to the best of your abilities. There are a million clubs, sports, and activities to join into as well. The people are always willing to help and the teachers are genuinely some of the best I have ever had in my life.

Lower Merion High School

• Lower Merion School District, PA
• 9-12
• 231 reviews

Senior: I transfered to Lower Merion High School as a Sophmore. Lower Merion made my transition smooth as they provided my family and I with insight on the school routine, a personal tour, and placement testing to ensure I would be placed in the right classes. I deal with severe anxiety and depression, their mental health department and guidance office is easily assessable. However, Lower Merion lacks in the field of college readiness, but I think for any High School it is hard to gauge how ready a student can and will be for college as 11th to 12th grade is an ever-changing and confusing time for any student. But overall, Lower Merion has provided resources to help me excel as not only a student but as a person. I have had so many amazing teachers who have helped me through every step of the way even if that was staying with me during Lunch & Learn, or giving me extra help, responding to my emails quickly, to even just talking to me one on one.

• 296 reviews

Alum: I graduated from here not too long ago, and I already miss being in Haverford High School! Undoubtedly, the best thing about this school is the sense of community here. No matter what you're interested in or who you are, you'll find someone who shares similar interests! Even if you don't share similar interests at all, the faculty and the majority of the student body are all friendly enough to get to know you and to make sure that you'll get the best, possible education here.
