Two of my kids went here and throughout that time I always felt that the school was more interested in propagating itself - raising money and growing - than it was in the specific interests of my children.

This is BY FAR the best school in the Lehigh Valley. My kids are excelling there. There is peer pressure to work hard, get good grades, stay out of trouble, and go to college. The curriculum is challenging. The tuition cost is the lowest in this league of schools.

As an alumna of the school, I can report on how the institution used to be excellent, however has suffered under the previous administration. Teachers are routinely fired for not following administrative directives, and the headmaster himself, supported by a highly unrepresentative board of trustees, wields dictatorial powers. This is not an institution of learning, and I encourage prospective students to choose any of the local high schools instead.

About these ratings

The Community Rating is the school’s average rating from its community members (e.g., parents, students, and school staff). The highest possible rating is five stars; the lowest is one star.

We currently do not have any test score information for this school. Unlike public schools, private schools are not always required to report data about their schools or not required to take the same tests as public schools. Many private schools take different standardized tests; however, that information is often made available only to families of enrolled students. We strive to acquire additional private school data whenever available.
