Fell D Newlin School

Amazing school and staff that support each individual student. Great community of students and parents that really come together. The test scores have improved A LOT and should be ranked much higher if using current data in recent years. The new playground lets the kids run around freely which is nice. Easily one of the best schools and environment for kids in Philly!

The school needs professional teachers! The environment is not safe ( to much bullying)Lack of hygiene!

My child goes to this school and they leave him to much homework for a 2 grader and doesn’t have enough time to enjoy his childhood

not a very friendly school and there is a lot of kids that need help.

Students are literally vaping in the school bathroom and there’s racism too. Not recommended going to this school.

I used to work with contracting services amongst OLOH and the teachers. Students are fine-most staff are truly friendly. Though during my time there, the principal was very rude towards her superiors. She’d have tantrums throughout the day going up and down. Her treatment towards the children was mediocre. She’d yell if kids had to use the bathroom, didn't have books covered, and if they weren’t silent in the lunchroom until they were told to be spoken too. Being a catholic school, OLOH struggles to be innovative and lacks a true administration team. It is ran by one principal and one assistant, who both lack a pleasant nor friendly demeanor. Public schools offer more than the services Catholic schools offer in terms of special education services. The fact that even the staff speak behind the principals back on how atrocious she can be, speaks volumes. OLOH needs a huge revamp in terms of administration and innovation. Out of all the Catholic schools in Philadelphia-I’d never consider for one moment, to have my children walk through those doors.
