why I love…

Clearview Elementary has quality administrators and staff; teachers, custodial, cafeteria, paras, and the health staff have always been pleasant and professional. Principal Heather Bennett-Knerr is someone who is professional and personable with those in the community. My husband and I researched charter and private schools in the area. We chose Clearview because we wanted to…

I cast a large net when I began the search for my child’s education, visiting all the local (and even out of town) schools just to get a feel for what’s available. I talked to families with children in all school settings. I applied for the lotto for Lehigh Valley Academy, a local charter school,…

      People say everything happens for a reason, I am a firm believer in that (for somethings).  My children have been in the BASD for the past 7 years.  We have loved and enjoyed our first child’s teachers in elementary school and now middle school very much.  It has been said that every child is different,…

“What we like about William Penn Elementary most is the sense of Community. All the way from the connection with other parents and families, up to being able to meet with the superintendent. You really get the feeling that everyone here cares. Teachers and staff go above and beyond with all sorts of after-school programs…

Thomas Jefferson is the perfect school for my family. Every time I walk into the school, I am impressed with how every staff member and teacher greets my son by name and with a smile. They are genuinely glad to see Joey and he is excited to be there. Every morning I drop my son…
