SINGLE HOME IN SOUTH BETHLEHEM???Perfect opportunity to stop renting and own your own home. This 3-bedroom single has a 3-car detached garage. On the first floor is a sizable living room and formal dining room, and eat-in kitchen. There are 3 bedrooms on the second floor and a full bathroom. The 3rd floor has a unheated recreation room. There are newer storm windows and gas hot water heater. The boiler is 9 years old. The 3-car garage faces the alley. There is a nice backyard with great potential.

4/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageMy daughter is afraid to tell the teacher she along with her friend were being bullied repeatedly, she said "the teachers are not helpful." I am looking into a new school now. Middle school is one of the most impressionable years of a child's life. Involve your child in picking their own school. 1. To parents and guardians, tell your kids SELF DEFENSE! And be involved and supportive in their lives so they can alert you of bullying and anything else that's suspicious. Most importantly, take them serious and do not belittle them. 2. To classmates and friends and kids going to this school, please report this to your teachers, if one teacher does nothing, report it to another teacher or even your principal. Please be brave and stop the cycle of bullying so no more kids get hurt. 3. To teachers, please be tactful and use therapeutic communication. The ideal confrontation between kids is to pull the kids involved but what about the consequences afterwards? The bully may continue to target the bullied, calling him/her tattletale. 4. To my daughter, I love you very much. I'm going to makes changes to give you a much more better schooling than you have now. Thanks for reading!Parent Review11y ago - Liberty High School

2/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageNot the greatest environment for a student to naturally blend in and want to excel in terms of academics and/or extracurricular activities. Not great in terms of general level of focus in academics for college preparation. You need to be extremely self-motivated for you to go above and beyond what the school offers in order to position yourself well for a well rounded experience and in order to have a decent shot at enrolling in a decent collegeOther Review9y ago - Donegan Elementary School
