Alum: The middle school gave me a very good education - it is an Abington Heights education, after all. At AHMS, I gained most of my writing skills, became interested in science, and developed a passion for music. However, the "team" set-up did not prepare me for high school. I feel as though there should be a different set-up for the seventh and eighth graders in order to better prepare them for high school.

Senior: North Pocono is a great high school. The school is relatively new and in excellent shape. The teachers are all friendly and most have a good idea in the subject they are teaching in. North Pocono students and faculty are greatly involved in the community, and in return the community does a lot to help out the school. There is always an officer in the school and sometimes more. Students always feel safe when they are at school. North Pocono offers a wide array of AP courses and dual enrollment courses with Lackawanna College .

Senior: There’s many opportunities to take here and you should! The academics are good and defiantly prepare you enough for after high school. The teachers are always willing to help to make sure you succeed. The sports you can join are very good and you can go very far into states, nationals etc. But the food is terrible, our lunches here are unbearable

High School Senior: Western Wayne has been the nest four years of my life. I've had my ups and downs here but its still the home of my education. The pep rallies, football games, and all the extra activities that our school has, kept me going throughout my fours years. The teachers are great and most of the student are amazing. So, my fours years at Western Wayne have been a big hit.
