We specifically left Weatherly for the reasons stated in the other review. Agree, way too small. Pecking order is accurate. The school does the best with what they have to work with. They hire questionable people. My standards would not include teacher assistant with 2 DUI's in 2013. I would rather the person aiding the children at the school making better choices and setting a better example. The teachers in the past were good. However, the teachers are retiring and they are replacing them with Weatherly born citizens with more of the same small town mentality. The town is so ignorant they have no idea how ignorant their small minds have become. It is all they know. The town in general has sub par standards. Defamation of character in the town/school means nothing to the people. The meaning build each other up is lost to this population. They tear each other down to make themselves look better. Any educated person knows, this does nothing but tear all down. As you enter the town there is a notice on any given day to attend the local meeting on what to do with the heroin epidemic. Run. Go anywhere but this school district. If you have made the mistake of moving into this town, be sure to check out MMI. Small school as well, but the mentality overall is to do your best. If you think you cannot afford MMI, think again. Just check into it, they do have financial aid. MMI is the better in the area but is not near the best in the state or country. You can make it work to your child's better future. Weatherly you cannot. You risk encountering extremely bad behavior that you have not idea how to respond in Weatherly. Run, just run. The good thing, they prepare the children for the PSSA's, your child will score excellent. When we moved I was told by our children's teachers the previous school obviously focused solely on PSSA prep. We moved to a top rated public school in the state of PA.
