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.

Been at this school for all 4 years of my high school career and I have loved every second,the teachers are always there to help in any way,the only thing I would change is the amount of time to get to classes I feel that we need a little bit of extra time.

Chester county is a beautiful school system but like every school system there's the few rotten apples in the tree. The teachers are usually great and very good at communicating but there's the few that are bookworms and don't teach as they should. There's much diversity in Henderson it is an experience for many. Also the food isn't great but we will be okay.

Chester County High School is a very average school in most regards. The possibilities for this school are certainly there but the administration has failed at giving the students proper chances to excel more than the 'average' student. I'm saying this because our superintended does not believe in honors classes as he says that a mixed class is more beneficial for the less academically inclined.
