NAGreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageMy son is finishing up second grade, and his experience here from Kindergarten through 2nd grade has been absolutely wonderful. Every teacher he's had has been responsive, helpful, and deeply invested in their students' success. He’s learned so much and made lifelong friends.The administration is fantastic, too—the principal recently went above and beyond to help me resolve a bus issue. He is highly communicative, thorough, and genuinely cares about the students' growth in all areas. As an alumnus who attended from 5th grade through graduation, I can confidently say the Wayne Highlands School District is truly top-tier.Parent Review1mo ago - Honesdale High School

9/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageMy daughter graduates from Honesdale High School and my husband and I feel she got a private school calibre education at a public school price. The administration and faculty is conservative, holds its student body to high standards and promotes values that are important to us, e.g., hard work, achievement, respect, community service. As of this writing, HHS's PA Scholastic Assessment scores have increased in the past 4 years, their student-to-teacher ratio permits each student to get the attention they need, and their curriculum is rigorous. They still offer Latin!Parent Review13y ago - Wayne Highlands Middle School
