GreatSchools Rating
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

Overall my experience has been ok. I can be hard to get along with. I have ADHD and like to fidgit. And I do not have a filter. Some teacher are ok with it and some think that I am not paying attention or being rude. I am thankful to my counselor and our Special Ed department to do what they can to help. I am in honors and AP classes, and teachers are more serious that general ed classes. This is something that I know I need. If I am still living in this school district when I have a family, I won't hesitate to send my children here.

Methacton High School is just a small high school. Very good education system here. It is definitely a school district I would raise my own kids in. Recommend if you are interested in coaching or getting involved with athletics if you are a parent.

Teachers supportive of students who ask for help. Students who struggle or who require more help is hit or miss some teachers are fabulous, some are just ok. Would like to see more focus on promoting tech and trades. College isn't for everyone and kids are pushed toward that path. High school does not accommodate students with schedules who decide later in high school that they may be interested in alternative pathway.

I am a senior in the methacton high school and let me just say my experience has been pretty bad. First off there is so much bullying and discrimination towards students from both the teachers and other students. The teachers also tend to choose one student to pick on and focus on. I do not recommen...
