Parent: Our family has been blessed with a Dock Mennonite Academy education thus far for 2 of our 4 children! Our Middle School experience with smaller class/grade sizes, an academically challenging curriculum, as well as being welcomed into a loving and supportive community has helped our children and family as a whole! Incorporating a faith-based education into our lives has encouraged our children to develop a greater appreciation for different beliefs/religions as well as strengthening their own spiritual awareness. The friendships that have been made between families raising their children with the same values has made the middle school years much easier and with an incredible amount of support!...Read 140 Reviews

Parent: I am very happy with the education my son is receiving at Propel Mckeesport. I believe his teachers genuinely care about him. Last year when he was in first grade he got off the bus excited to tell me that his teacher (Ms. Regan) was an excellent football player and she was playing with he and his friends during recess. I was impressed that she took that time to interact with the kids rather than talking with other teachers the way my own elementary school teachers had. I do however, wish that there was more opportunities for parents to volunteer in the classroom. While we do have a "meet and greet" before school starts to learn of any new policies there is not currently an open house held early in the school year to see what your child has done and how he/she is adjusting to a new grade, new teachers, and a new classroom expectations. While I would like to see those changes made, I am happy to know my son goes to a school where the teachers make him feel like part of a family!...Read 3 Reviews

Parent: My family has been part of the Plumstead Christian School community for twelve years, and we couldn't be happier. We have three recent graduates who were not only fully prepared for college, but all of them stepped onto their top tier college campuses with more than one full year of college under their belts because of the Advanced Placement and dual enrollment courses that PCS offers. All three of our PCS alumni were successful in college - two graduating summa cum laude - and all three are gainfully employed. More than this, we are happy that they think biblically, and they got this foundation from their time at PCS. Thank you PCS for blessings our family in this way!...Read 45 Reviews

Freshman: Pennridge High School is not like your average academic center. PHS is one of the most accepting and enjoyable education institutions that also effectively tailor your traits and talents to help you get a head start towards your bright future. Furthermore, every student that attends Pennridge has an unlimited choice of classes and other activities they can enjoy. From amazing visual art programs to miraculous technical and S.TE.M classes, people can find their hidden destiny. Not only that, but PHS also helps teach life skills such as personal finance, cooking, etc. The opportunities at Pennridge are endless. "What's more?" you may ask; well, PHS has one of the most positive communities in the North East. You can always find someone greeting you around the corner in the hallways, and everybody is watching each other's back.

Parent: As a parent of three children who have been attending the school for many years, I wholeheartedly recommend Calvary Baptist School because of its biblical teachings, solid academic standards, excellent faculty and continued opportunities for honor and AP studies as well as dual high/school college enrollment. In the middle school and high school, there are opportunities to get involved in sports, drama and other activities. The teachers are amazing, devoted, and take the time to invest in the lives of their studies. The school continues to look for opportunities to make improvements for the students and school community. My family started out with the intention of our kids attending pre-school, now we have a student at the high school! We stayed because our kids love the school, we love the atmosphere and are blessed to be a part of the Calvary Baptist school family...Read 16 Reviews

Parent: I loved Lansdale catholic high school! The environment was amazing and I could not have asked for a better high school experience. When I first got to Lansdale Catholic, I knew no one there. I came from a large public middle school going to this small private catholic high school. I quickly learned that Lansdale Catholic High School is a family. It will forever be a family. I will always hold LCHS near and dear to my heart. everyone there is so kind and friendly. Everyone wanted to see the students succeed. From the teachers, administrators, faculty and everyone else in-between, it was overall an amazing school. My dad attended LC when he was in high school. I was very proud to be apart of his legacy. I am hoping one day to also send my kids to LC. I want them to have a similar HS experience to what I had. The true community that Lansdale Catholic High school provided was amazing. Not only was the atmosphere amazing, but so was the academics. I was beyond prepared for college. go LC!...Read 141 Reviews

Senior: I have loved my experience at Faith Christian Academy since I transferred in 9th grade. The teachers and students have been a second family to me. Every class has equipped and prepared me for what is ahead and I cannot be more thankful. The friends I have met taught me how to be more selfless and kind to those around me. Education comes first at Faith Christian, the teachers invest into every students life to grow them as a person and a child of God. The coaches that Faith Christian has hired have impacted me more then I could ever imagine. I was taught leadership, encouragement, wisdom through playing basketball and track at Faith. I have also met some of the greatest mentors in my life at this school. They teach me to see the best in others and to use my time wisely. Being a Christian student athlete at Faith has changed me for the better, I can forever thank God for leading me to such a wonderful school. Faith Christian is for anyone looking to grow more and more!...Read 50 Reviews

Even through the entire 2020 crazines plagued by pandemic(s), etc., St. Isidore stood tall, proud and strong. Kids were in school since September, safe, protected and learning along without skipping a beat. We’ve had both of our kids here since pre-school... for a running total of some eight years!

Parent: My stepsons have been attending Upper Bucks Christian School for many years,with the oldest about to be a senior.The family atmosphere and the way the younger students look up to the upperclassmen warms my heart,and I know it is because the faculty takes great lengths to develop those relationships,modeling service to others.The academics are great and most graduates go on to successful careers.I love that trade schools as well as colleges are encouraged.We have benefitted the most from the athletic programs,in which coaches work to get individuals playing time so they can test their growing skills of discipline and sportsmanship all while being encouraged to play to glorify God.I am especially thankful for the administration that has been in charge of making the difficult decisions regarding the covid pandemic.Most of all,I love that this school remains focused on giving our children education based on a Biblical worldview,which is really what matters most in life and their futures...Read 11 Reviews

Alum: Beginning in 7th grade, I started my journey there and continued on until I successfully graduated from high school. The teachers and advisors there were without a doubt the kindest and most genuinely understanding people I have ever met. Quakertown Christian School has a very unique take on what education is. They don't just focus on academics and getting children to make it to the next step they are supposed to take. They motivate and coach along the side of every single student while embracing their individuality along the way...Read 2 Reviews

The teachers are warm and accessible with great communication - I know what is going on in the classroom, I know what my kiddos are learning and how they are doing, and if there are any issues it is easy to discuss with their teachers.

The school provides such a wholesome and loving environment where both students and parents/grandparents feel welcome when there.

It is very important to our family that our daughters are educated in a school that provides a strong Catholic education that fosters our Catholic beliefs and traditions as they grow while challenging them academically and preparing them for their promising futures!
