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.

Very small town so everybody knows everyone which is nice because it is a generation town where parents went to school together and now their kids go to school together.

Despite Maple Shade being a small, suburban town, this school has a history of being extremely problematic. Between inclusivity issues, a lack of support for disabilities, inappropriate teachers, etc. Maple Shade High School needs a lot of work done.

Excellent... Excellent... Excellent. We had moved a lot and my children had attended many different schools in other communities. MSHS by far is the BEST!

Maple Shade High School may be a small school, but it a small school with a big heart. The teachers, administration and support staff are genuinely caring and dedicated to the students, school and community. I have children that have already graduated and one that is a senior this year. My graduates...

Remind me again why I'm paying this much taxes to live in a town whose public schools are rated only slightly above Philadelphia's?

I graduated from Maple Shade High School in 2006 and I really enjoyed my experience at the school.The teachers were friendly and helpful. The average graduating class in the school is anywhere from 150-200 people. If you enjoy living in a small town, Maple Shade is definitely a good place.
