  1. Indiana Area School District

    • School District
    • Indiana, PA
    • 19 reviews

    Senior: Indiana Area High School is an amazing school that I've been going to for a year and a half now. I moved to Indiana the start of my junior year. Scared because I knew no one. As a new kid in school I worried how I'd make friends, but I didn't have too worry because they had a solution. Their solution was to have ambassadors who assist the new kids. Having an ambassador was truly a blessing to help me adapt to a new environment. Indiana has an excellent curriculum. Compared to my first two years of high school my grades have improved tremendously. I averaged B's/C's whereas now I make honors every quarter. Teachers here take time to help students and teach thoroughly. If I have a problem understanding a question they do not make me feel ashamed. At Indiana the teachers care about the students. If I seem down they ask if everything is okay with me. I feel safe at Indiana because they have a security guard on the school grounds at all hours of the school day.

  2. Homer-Center School District

    • School District
    • Homer City, PA
    • 7 reviews

    Alum: At Homer Center, they follow their motto perfectly. Everybody really is somebody. Whether you’re the top of the class, a jockey athlete, a band geek, or a plain old average student, the teachers and faculty really make you feel like you are a top priority. I learned so much from the amazing teachers there. Not only about Academics, but also very important life lessons. I enjoyed waking up knowing I was going to my second home. I never felt alone or threatened at Homer Center. It really felt like those people, students and teachers, were like a family to me. It was never a dull moment. The teachers did an amazing job at making learning fun. Either it was building boats in Algebra 3 or testing chemical flames in Chemistry class, there was always something to look forward to coming to school. Homer Center shows so much pride in our academics, athletics and arts. I wouldn’t have wanted to go anywhere else. Homer Center is an amazing school to grow up in.

  5. Marion Center Area School District

    • School District
    • Marion Center, PA
    • 13 reviews

    Alum: Marion center school was connected with the Indiana County Technology Center so I had my core studies at Marion Center and my technical skills from ICTC. I enjoyed attending high school thete, although there is not too much diversity amongst the student body. It took some time to get used to all the different nationalities, religious beliefs and just family backgrounds once I attended college due to not being around that at Marion Center.

  6. Penns Manor Area School District

    • School District
    • Clymer, PA
    • 13 reviews

    Niche User: I graduated from Penns Manor two years ago. Throughout my 12 years at the school, I learned a variety of things from numerous teachers, some good and some bad. The school is very small, which forced students to build close relationships not only with peers, but with teachers as well. The majority of the teachers were kind and wanted to help you succeed, but there were a few who didn't care and didn't teach a thing. Overall, the school and the experiences I had there shaped me into the person and student I am today and I wouldn't change anything.

    • School District
    • Commodore, PA
    • 6 reviews

    Alum: I had a great experience at Purchase Line. All through school, the teachers were great. Whenever I needed help, the teacher for that subject would make sure I understood the information. I played on the basketball, volleyball, and softball teams and had a great experience with all of them. I was also in the marching band, the director was one of the best and most helpful people I have ever met.
