State College Area High School

I have taught in many schools, and have always thought this is where I would want my own children. Now I have my children in Friends School and could not be happier with their social and academic experiences there. There are many schools is our area striving to achieve goals that have been long established realities at Friends School. They are far beyond the curve in what truly matters for the long term cognitive and emotional development of children. I would encourage anyone interested to visit, even if you are not sure it is a possibility. Your family will be met with compassion and curiosity by the wonderful folks at Friends School.

I cannot tell you in words how wonderful this school has been for my daughter...but I will try! The teachers are excellent. The school director is wonderful. They do a great job of teaching the children about how to be conscience of others and the community. The teachers are loving and kind and go above and beyond! There are plenty of opportunities for "extras" like music, art, Spanish, and more. Academically, they are teaching my daughter the necessities for kindergarten. I have no doubt she will be prepared for next year. There are frequent parent/family gatherings and teachers do a great job of keeping parents informed. I am so glad we found this preschool for my daughter. It was just what she needed. The absolute only downfall I have found is that it is a little pricey. But I suppose the old saying is true...you get what you pay for! Definitely worth it!!
