Send your child here if you want him or her to be guaranteed to have a juvenile record before they finish school thanks to their "Zero Tolerance" policies. No consideration of cirmcumstances whatsoever. So much for their anti-bullying stance. If the bully is beating up your kid, your kid gets a citation and an out of school suspension for being on the receiving end of the blows. What a great school! I regret bringing my kid back into the system from cyber school.

I am a new mathematics teacher at Whitehall High School. I've been welcomed warmly by the staff and the students. It's a wonderful school!

As a student at Whitehall since K (now going to 11th grade) I can say that I am happy with it. It's become more strict over the years, but what school hasnt? There are alot more AP classes offered and the techers really know what they are talking about. They are constantly taking more classes to improve their knowledge. There are many science courses to choose from. Whitehall prepares you with writing. Alot of different clubs/activities and sports to chose from

WHS School in Whitehall is probably one of the top schools in Pennsylvania. Recently, in 2008, studies have shown Parkland's scores average 83% for 9th Grade Math and WHS got 92%! It is incredibly good school with good teachers,

I do not enjoy writing bad things but Whitehall is a very terrible school. Way too strict, teachers have favorites, no free time what so ever, and poor saftey

As a teacher in another 'High rated' district and having sent my children to Catholic grade school, Whitehall-Coplay school district is a breath of fresh air. It seems that most of the teachers like what they do and do it well, they are professional and it's apparent that many have their Masters+ degree. The courses are challenging and diverse. The school district is very community-oriented and it has provided my children with an awareness of the community they live it which was/is so lacking in Catholic school. Overall, it's been an extremely positive experience for my entire family. I would recommend this school district to anyone.

Just so-so. As of 2002 there were only 3 AP courses offered. The school administration seemed mostly interested in passing kids through the system. They spent much time encouraging votech programs over college prep. Send your kids to Parkland or CCHS rather than Whitehall.
