I've had lots of help from administrators and educators alike all through my time at the school and I have many great memories growing up within the district

There's so many programs, just not enough people taking advantage of them. Academics and rigorous classes get better each year, so a plus. Large school, so you never really have to see the same person everyday, or never at all so you always meet new people.

I would say I had a good experience even though i came to this school my sophomore year. The school is very big so it's easy to feel alone in this school. Coming to the school later definitely made it harder to make friends my junior year as i was new and friendships had already been developed from freshman year. Overall my best year was my senior year.

Constant bullying and nothing is done. There are supposedly good programs for stopping bullying but it doesn’t seem anything is EVER done for it. The person defending themselves first is. ALWAYS punished, and something REALLY needs to be done about that…

My daughter graduated from Seneca Valley. It's the best school. The teachers are just great. The principal of the Sr High was around when I was in high school. Great guy. Can't say enough good about the school.

As a past student and as I read some of the revues by some of the past students it's so funny how bad a review some these people give. No school is perfect Seneca is one of the larger school districts in area. They have nice updated buildings and lots of opportunities in different sports and clubs.

Wow after reading all the negative reviews I feel much better about myself because I barely had to try back then and it still wasnt anything compared to college. If they are having a hard time at Seneca dont waste your money on an expensive college.
