2020 Best Schools in Blair CountyAbout this List

Bishop Guilfoyle Catholic High School

• Private School
• Altoona, PA
• 7-12
• 31 reviews

Junior: Bishop Guilfoyle has provided so many opportunities for both me and countless other students. They have challenged me both academically and spiritually over the last 5 years. I have enjoyed the opportunities to meet new students and professionals in a safe, protected environment. Although they provide a lot of tools and guidance throughout the college search process, I wish they would use college visit days as academic opportunities or credit, rather than simply just school absences

Tyrone Area High School

• Tyrone Area School District, PA
• 9-12
• 73 reviews

Senior: The Tyrone Area High School has a welcoming and family atmosphere. The teaching staff is always trying to better their teaching and help their students as much as needed. Having a variety of activities for students to take part in is very important to this school district. The community and students are very supportive and involved when it comes to sports. I personally had a very positive experience at Tyrone Area High School by being involved in clubs such as HOSA and National Honors Society. If anything could be improved, it would probably be the appearance of the school itself. Some classrooms and designs are outdated and could be changed.

It also helps for a better relationship to be built between teacher/student which helps to motivate students to want to learn. We really like the curriculum and the extra-curricular activities that are offered. It’s the perfect fit for our family!

Central High School

• Spring Cove School District, PA
• 9-12
• 92 reviews

Senior: I personally have went to Central High School all four years of my high school career and I can say that it is quite an amazing place of education while also maintaining that fun factor everyone dreams of. All of the teachers are well rounded and get the information into your head and have it stick. Now not only that but our school has so many entertaining and fun events. Our lunches is where we lack. I mean they are edible but there is absolutely no flavor. I would rate my school a five out of five because no school can be perfect and I am glad the place where it is lacking is the lunches.

Bellwood-Antis High School

• Bellwood-Antis School District, PA
• 9-12
• 77 reviews

Alum: One of the things I enjoyed most about moving to this school and getting to graduate from there would be that they have classes for everyone. They offer classes for those who struggle and also advanced classes including college classes in high school. The staff and faculty are amazing and willing to help any student who needs it, not only with school and homework, but are also willing to just listen and give advice on life and applying for college.
