The school is solid and underrated. The school is effective if you make it effective, and it also comes down to the people that you hang out with.

I went to Steelton for about 5 years and I have to say it's wether your commited to learning or not. Yes there's drama but that comes along through every school...You won't have any problems with people as long as you don't judge. I love it!! &I would definitley recommend this school {despite all the false info everyone is told}.
