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 had a very good experience. I was a part of many curricular activities like Science Olympiad, Mock drills, Tennis, Badminton, Key club, Indian cultural club and others. It helped me to be what I am today, a very confident person who can lead my life with dignity, enthusiasm and service to others. I was fortunate to be a part of Nortj Penn High School.

North Penn does it right. For a school of that size it is incredible the job they do turning kids into pre-adults ready for college or trades.
