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.

Mechanicsburg is an okay school. It has its up and downs. Most of the teachers here think they're better than everyone else and the teachers kids aren't the nicest either

My experience at this school has been fantastic. Although there are definitely some things that I would change, I really like all of my teachers and my classmates. Our school has a very friendly environment which I am glad to have been a part of.

The quality of extracurricular activities at this school is great. However, there aren't a lot of options for those who don't wish to take part in sports. There should be greater diversity of activities available, in my opinion.

The school does not address bullying situations as they should. They say they have a no tolerance policy but I just don't see that! There are a lot of things that depend on who you are as to how rules go.
