7/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageWe moved to Wallingford from Philadelphia for the school system and we made the best choice. The principal is incredible, she knows every single child almost immediately, and recognizes parents within the first week. She is incredibly dedicated to the children, as are the teachers. My son loves this school so much and looks forward to school every day! There are great after school programs as well. I cannot say enough great things about the school.Parent Review11y ago - Strath Haven Middle School

5/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageI believe the only reason that the school receives low improvement scores is because they did so well guaranteeing the students still received full, high quality curriculum education during the quarantine period, so they didn’t have far to go to get back to the top. Look at how advanced the scores are overall! I am extremely satisfied as a parent. The teachers work in teams and education is personalized to each student, despite being a large public school. The clubs and activities are awesome and the community is fabulous. There is little diversity. That is the only other low mark against it. Looking at this school’s number rating on great schools, one would never imagine how amazing it is. The ratings system needs improvement. Parents are aware and they do pay high taxes for their children to attend such excellent schools.Parent Review2mo ago - Strath Haven High School

8/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageI was someone who was in special education as a child. Wssd put 5 years of time and effort into getting me out. When I was given academic independence in middle school, I struggled. My grades slipped, however, my teachers and guidance counselors noticed and helped me. By the time I was in high school, I was on the honor roll. My teachers, peers, and guidance counselors were extremely supportive of me. This has allowed me to attend a highly-ranked university. Do not listen to these other reviews from people who attended over 20 years ago. This school is great!Other Review1y ago
