Overall a really good school. Absolutely outstanding academics. A wide variety of elective classes. They even have JROTC! More clubs and sports than you know what to do with. The only problems are that the school is too big. It's easy to get lost in the crowd. If a student has a problem (academic, medical that affects their academics) they have to advocate for themselves, parents need to keep on the counselors and teachers. I moved to the district because of this school and so far I haven't been dissapointed.

I think the overall academics at the school is great. However, my son was denied lunch because he didn't have $0.40 in his lunch account to pay for lunch. The lunch lady put the lunch away, told him he has $0.11 in his lunch account . It broke my heart to know he did not have lunch. I could have given him money if I knew the account was low. What kind of person would send a child back to class on an empty stomach, because they didn't have $0.40 to pay for lunch. I called the nutritional office, and they were of no help. I called the superintendent's office, she told me the cafeteria manager would get back to me. No one got back to me. I had to go pick my son up at school. He didn't have lunch and was not feeling he could continue the day on empty stomach. I hope the person in the cafeteria is reading this, and know that you are a heartless human being. The school does not exist to make a profit , it's for educational purposes.

Horrible school district for kids with special needs.....Has caused my family great stress...I liked it before when north penn did not have a class available for my child with such extensive needs because of her level of disability..... they were forced to send my child to surroundings school districts which h were much better My child's teacher makes every possible way to try and make me feel like I'm a bad parent....When I have been told by multiple doctors if it was not for me she would not be alive....I'm disgusted especially for the fact if you ever try to make a complaint it's like they don't care....My child's teacher believes it's ok to tape confidential and embarrassing health information about my child to her wheel chair where everyone can see it.... -Disgusted parent

HUGE MISTAKE MOVING HERE!!! Have a child with SPECIAL NEEDS and the district has been EXTREMELY UNSUPPORTIVE and causing us an alot of unnecessary STRESS!! THE WORST DISTRICT we've ever dealt with!! We questioned the bad reviews and didn't think it would be so bad but IT'S MUCH WORSE!! Apparently this district only "LIKES" kids who are wealthy, athleticy gifted, or academicly above their peers. They have treated us so POORLY!! I have NOTHING good to say, I'm so very disappointed for my family and my child.
