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.

Some of the best things about the high school is how the teachers are very involved and always willing to help. All the teachers are so amazing at what they do. Some of the most amazing times I had was hands on projects in classrooms it kept me involved with what we were doing. I can't thank the staff enough for helping me grow academically. There was really no bad experience with donegal high school they are all amazing people and willing to help you and stay after school to help.

This school is a typical small school in southeastern Pennsylvania. There was not much diversity and we have always been bad at sports. I went there when COVID hit, and it ruined the experience. Lots of teachers left, and dances and sports were taken away or made worse.
