Great school. We have loved the teachers and staff.

Wealthy school. Unless your child is an academic or athletic prodigy, your child will be educated in a large, impersonal college style campus. Limited communication with teachers, overwhelming class sizes. Lots of wealthy kids who cyber bully and host drug parties in mansions. If you are an average American family that has a 2 working parents, be prepared to sell your soul to the school on your free time if you want your child to have any type of opportunities. This school is the epitome of TV high schools, where the stay at home moms, or the wealthy families have the means and deeply rooted community connections to allow their child to maximize what this district provides. No one will help you or guide you unless you have an IN with the administration, the PTA, an athletic booster club, or just know the right people. Lots of racial segregation in the community. Asians stick with Asians, Caucasians stick with Caucasians and all minorities of darker color stick with them selves as well. On top of a racially divided school, within that, you have social-economical segregation where the wealthy and popular stick with each other and take all the opportunities away from the less fortunate. The school allows this to happen because the "Real housewives of CV" know what's going on all the times (even before public announcements and enrollments are available) and push their kids into these programs/extra curriculars, where as a low middle class kid doesn't have that support and ends up not being able to participate because the selections were already pre-rigged. I have 2 alumni and 2 current and I truly wish I would have chosen a smaller, socially level and educationally intimate environment for our "in the middle, average" children.

I got lunch detention for other people yelling and screaming and going wild because I did a front flip in one of the hallways. one of the staff members gave me a lunch detention because those people were yelling he also (the staff member) said it was endangering myself ( I been professionally trained to do flips and do parkour. He even said this wasn't the first time the first time was outside on the grass after SCHOOL before I got on the bus after SCHOOL HOURS. I shouldn't have gotten in trouble becuase of other people misbehaving. If those people didnt act that way in the hallway I wouldn't have gotten in trouble. Not in any way was I putting myself in danger. The staff member who gave me the detention assumed what I was doing was dangerous and I was causing all the noise which isn't true the other students were yelling becuase of the flip i wasn't the reason for the yelling it was the other students thinking is what caused all the yelling I'm mad and honestly annoyed on how some staff members just assume things in one of the best schools in PA (or at least that's what I thought before I came to mvms.)
