The Heart of Philadephia
Philadelphia’s vibrant culture scene is sure to meet your expectations. Visit the Art Museum or enjoy a show in the theater district; take in a performance at the Pennsylvania Ballet or the Curtis Institute of Music; visit the various art installations around the city; enjoy various art galleries and dramatic performances for free on First Fridays.
If you are focused on higher education or interested in dual-enrollment, Princeton University, University of Pennsylvania, Drexel University, Temple University, Penn State University, and Widener University are all within easy commuting distance.
As a school we want to participate in our local community by creating opportunities for students to experience things outside the classroom. In the past we have attended the Walnut Street Theater, roamed through museums and visited the farms of Lancaster. Being located in the heart of Philadelphia has a lot to offer and we are always looking for new ways to use the city to benefit our students.
