This school is deplorable and one of the main reasons why the City of Clairton cannot keep young educated families from moving. If you care even the slightest about your child's education, health and safety you would NOT send them here.

"I’m on a somewhat main road. It can get busy when school lets out. Otherwise, it’s surprisingly quiet. Though we aren’t inside a plan, we are part of a plan that’s on the other side of a valley. It still feels neighborly. Quiet, yet still close to everything."
