They have some nice statements in their Mission, Values and Beliefs but they don't back that up with their actions. Still a backward narrowminded school that does not care about students. Lack of transparency with decisions. Not student-centered.

We moved to this district a year ago from another highly rated school district. This district is awesome! My son loves the sixth grade center. As a parent, I like the concept of having sixth graders in their own building. They arent quite kids but not teens either. Mr. Thompson is a fantastic leader there and the kids all seem to respect him. We are excited to go to the middle school next year.
I absolutely love the openness & transparency of Dr Harner the superintendent. He keeps the parents informed of the triumphs and the challenges facing our students. I am just thrilled with QCSD! Panther Pride!

The superintendent has been on the job for 5 years and has completely changed the focus and drive of the students.

2 kids in the Quakertown system that are now in HS. They have performed very well and are being pushed by taking top AP classes. The programs offered are very unique. It's a small town community where you get to know everyone including teachers and students. Superintendent encourages Academics, Arts, and Athletics.

Quakertown has wonderful teachers who truly care about each and every student. My experience has been absolutely wonderful, and I could not imagine spending my high school career somewhere else. There are a plethora of Honors and AP classes for the advanced students. I have made so many great friends, and I'm involved in some of their fun clubs. I cannot recommend this school enough!
