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.

I love how helpful our teachers are! The only thing I would change is to get newer bathrooms. Everyone does their job and it is just a super friendly place to go to school.

Penns Manor high school is a school where anyone is barley excepted. Penns Manor is all about last names. If you do not have the right last name you will most likely get less attention from the teachers, and you often will be picked last for sports you will sit the bench in sports such as volleyball, football, softball,and baseball. So you asked my over experience at Penns Manor the honest truth it could have been better, but I was a member of the majorette squad so I had my little group. Penns Manor is a school that puts its athletic program first , education second,and food last.

Excellent school for its size. Facility is well maintained. Look up their PA future readiness index and you will see all criteria being met for post secondary and college readiness. Also offer many many different dual enrollment options.

To paraphrase Ben Kenobi, "This is not the school you are looking for." As a student, your child can expect the bare minimum regarding the reaching of his or her potential. How do I know this? I was a student who attended the Penns Manor Area School district from grade 5 through 12. I spent numerous...

I graduated from Penns Manor a few years ago, and never really appreciated how lucky I was to go there until I heard about some of the other schools in the state. Penns Manor has excellent teachers. The smallness of the district provides a better educational experience, with the teachers having more...
