7/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageI am a student at this school. From 6th grade to high school I've been going here, and I have been rather pleased with the school until this year. The teachers are great, and they have many different programs for people with different interests to help ready students for their future. What I am not a big fan of is the schedule. This year, we had block scheduling, which I am not a big fan of, but every school in our country tried this schedule out. Other than that, I think this is a very good school.Student Review9y ago - Cecilton Elementary School

3/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AveragePoorly. I have not been happy with this school since we came here. I am deciding to re located back to our home school out of state. This school does not push academics. They are to laid back about academics. And to laid back about listening to the parents & working 1 on 1 with the students.Parent Review7y ago - Bohemia Manor Middle School

6/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageThis is, by far, the WORST school my children have ever attended. Thankfully, their time here will be short. My 8th and 9th graders talk about how bored they are with the curriculum. They come from one of the highest rated schools in chester county, so this school is a joke. Not only is it lacking academically, a few of the staff members shouldn't be allowed near children. Woodall and Smith, two people you should protect your children from at all costs. They bully, harass and gaslight children. I had to go to the superintendent about both of them because they were given strict instructions to stay away from my daughter, who did not feel safe around either one of them, but they made a point to single her out and harass her regularly. Please don't send your children here!!Parent Review1y ago
