My experience while attending First Philadelphia was great. The teachers are hands on and are always understanding. The school itself is college readiness. They would have colleges come visit and look at your application and accept you to college on the spot.

My experience in First Philadelphia has been good. I have made lots of friends and have good teachers. I strongly believe that more teachers are needed in order to have a better education experience. Also, they should be more involve with preparing juniors and seniors for college or trade school.

I hate this school. Some of the staff only care about hanging out with students. They never let you have a voice or say anything important that you think will help the school. And they do really bad and disciplining children.
