The school has fallen on very hard times. The Superintendent is a poor leader and has no committment to setting high academic standards. The school recently eliminated most weighting for upper level academic course work and has diluted the value of class rank. Students with good grades in basic courses are ranked higher than students who challenge themselves in advanced courses and receive B's. The school has quit on competing academically with schools like Eastern and Haddon Twp, and seems to be content to be on par with Paulsboro and Glassboro. It will be a long, slow and painful ride to the bottom of the heap and it is a real shame.
Great school and community spirit!
Great teachers and faculty and the atmosphere they generate in the school just flows to who encompass it!
This is an excellent school to substitute at. The students are friendly and the other teachers are helpful. It is a small close knit environment, that makes you feel at home.
