Alum: I had a great experience throughout my career in the TE school district. I attended Valley Forge Elementary, Middle, and Conestoga High School. The teachers are fantastic and truly care about their students. I loved my experience so much that it has inspired me to become a middle school teacher too. I would definitely recommend parents have their children attend TE's awesome schools!

Senior: While the academics are excellent, the school culture and diversity could be improved. The school refuses to renovate the already existing rifle range and instead spent millions on tearing down half of the school and renovating the other half. Taxes have been raised because of this, and they were high to begin with. I understand that tax dollars allow for the achievement of good results we receive on many tests, but the money should be used more wisely.

Senior: I absolutely love the diversity of the students at NA. The teachers are also one of the best parts about the district. The teaching methods they utilize keep classes varied, fun, and easy to learn. In the past few years, the district has taken a bold initiative to include more technology in the classroom. This makes learning even more easy and fun! Finally, there are almost an infinite amount of after-school activities that you can get involved in. There is bound to be at least one that can peak your interest!

Senior: As an all girls boarding school, Grier boosted a positive studying environment and encouraged its students to strive for both rigorous academics and varied extracurriculars as well. I particularly enjoyed the all-girls atmosphere, as it encouraged my participation and gave me a sense of community unparallelled by any co-ed school.

Alum: The teachers truly care about the students' well being and education. The school environment feels safe and open, because of the teacher and administration's efforts to accommodate all students. This is applicable in all of the schools that I attended. Indian Lane Elementary School, Springton Lake Middle School, and Penncrest High School all brought outstanding school experiences. My Junior and Senior year, a grant was established to give the students ipads. This was an extremely privileged situation that the experience.

Alum: Lower Merion School District is great! They prepared me for college completely and I had some of the most amazing teachers throughout elementary to high school. I moved to the area in 5th grade from Israel and did not speak a word of English. The ESL (English as a Second Language) program helped me so much and in 5 years I was already placed out of the program and was in all English speaking classes. I would definitely recommend Lower Merion School District to anyone looking for great education and a great experience.

Senior: My overall experience has been great! I have been given so many opportunities academically and non-academically. The teachers are great, and are very helpful. One thing I wish to see changed is the school spirit. School spirit is lacking due to kids not participating in extracurricular activities due to the amount of school work. School spirit definitely needs to increase!

Alum: I am a recent alum of QVSD. I attended the elementary, middle, and then graduated from the high school. I had a great experience probably mostly due to the fact that it is a public school, but the class size is 140-180 max. I love the small school feel and love the fact that everyone knows each other and teachers can name almost everyone in the school. I had great teachers almost every single year and although the high school facility is old and not very nice, they are building a new school in the near future. The elementary schools and middle school facilities are gorgeous with so many technological resources available.

Senior: I was in the Haverford School district for elementary, middle, and high school. Most of my teachers were very nice and helpful. Many AP teachers are very qualified and prepare students well for the exams. There were many clubs to choose from and if you didn't find any to your liking you could easily start your own! The faculty sometimes hindered the experience for some students, but overall I enjoy my time at Haverford!

Unionville-Chadds Ford School District

15 Districts with the Best Teachers in Pennsylvania
Senior: Unionville High School is a great school. The classes are hard, however, manageable and the school has multiple options for students to pick classes based off how they feel they would do in the class. Most teachers are very easy to learn from and are helpful for all learning styles. However, the administration needs some work. For instance, many activities that students support are either cancelled or rejected just because they do not want it to happen or it's too much work. Also, when dealing with detentions or any disciplinary action they are extremely unreasonable when students try to talk to them about it. The student is trying to explain reasons for something happening and the administration will not listen. Overall, the school has great academics and college readiness but the administration and diversity needs some work.

Mcdonald, PA

16 Districts with the Best Teachers in Pennsylvania
Parent: The resources, facilities and faculty are consistently top notch across the board. The curriculum is challenging yet creative. Students are not only taught facts and methods necessary to thrive in college; the administration and faculty ensure students have every opportunity to embrace their passions, maximize their ability to use logic and reason, be objective & open minded and to reject apathy and bigotry. They are taught the requisite skills to succeed at college and beyond - to be responsible, thoughtful, well rounded, driven, rational and productive adults.

As a parent, I'm excited for my children's future more than ever since we moved to South Fayette.

Senior: I really enjoyed the focus on academics at Fairview. The administration and faculty push heavily for every student to succeed. Teachers are very good on the whole, and sports teams bring many students together. One problem with Fairview is trying to be a perfect school. At times, there is an overabundance of pushing students into STEM fields with little mention for other career paths. On the whole, Fairview is an excellent district, graduating students that have the capacity to be successful in whatever they choose to do.

Senior: I really love my school district however this year marks the third year in a row that our administration and teachers have been unable to reach an agreement with regards to teacher union contracts which has caused various strikes, teacher ambivalence and a decrease in the quality of the overall experience. It is disenchanting as a student that educated adults cannot reach a common ground. It has definitely and unfortunately negatively affected students. It has however, taught me a very good lesson and that is to pursue my goals in spite of adversity.

Senior: Having gone through the school program for thirteen years and participating in a multitude of extracurricular activities, I can account for the diverse, supportive, and safe atmosphere that Wyomissing Area has created. I would also like to recognize the fact that the teachers and faculty in addition to the Wyomissing curriculum have indisputably prepared me to fully commit myself to my college plans as well as my future career. The guidance counselors were essential especially during my last two years in high school. The ladies supported me and went to all ends of the Earth trying to produce the path that would best suit me. All of my teachers have been role models in their dedication to teaching and passion in helping those around them in every aspect possible and am grateful for having experienced such considerate personalities.

The teachers had faith in each student and spent as much time as possible helping them. It was such a positive atmosphere. The principle was the best. He respected each student always saying hello to each student in the halls. I would say he even knew most of the students by name! So glad I moved to this district!

Junior: In my experience, all the teachers are very well=trained and know how to deal with the students' academic and personal problems. The students are all kind to each other and try to include everybody in the events that are held. There are also many clubs and sports which allows students to choose what they would like to do on their free time while having fun and doing things they are interested in. The school also has many opportunities for students to branch out and do things that are otherwise out of their comfort zone. For example, there are many community service opportunities that would be hard to do on their own, but in school it's already planned out and they can still help people in their community with their peers.
