7/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageReally incredible school! Both of my kids will be at the school K - 8th and every year they love their teachers and feel very supported. It’s a very special community of teachers, staff, and leadership and the surrounding neighborhood of Queen Village is my favorite place to live in Philly. The US News report of 2023 just named Meredith the #1 elementary school in the Philadelphia school district which makes sense but doesn’t begin to capture the magic of the place that I’ve witnessed over the years.Other Review3mo ago - Furness Horace High School
- 9-12
- Public
- 697 Students
4/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageI don't think the test score reflects the school's quality of education. Our students in Furness come from all where in the world. We have a very diverse student body. As a graduate student and also a valedictorian of the Furness High School, I can proundly say that our faculty members and students are great. Our test score may not as good as the other school, but our students are carrying more weight in family and it's not easy to anyone to study a new language.Parent Review1y ago - Check out schools near 796 S Front St.
