Educating and inspiring students to do their personal best
West Chester Area School District serves a 75-square-mile suburban, urban and rural area in central Chester County, Pennsylvania known for its many diversified businesses and beautiful historic countryside. A $202 million budget for 2011-12 supports close to 12,000 students in ten elementary schools (kindergarten through grade 5), three middle schools (grades 6 through 8), and three high schools (grades 9 through 12). The professional staff, headed by Superintendent Dr. James R. Scanlon, numbers over 900. Student achievement is evident by the CollegeBoard SAT scores our students receive which are consistently above state and national averages. In the annual Pennsylvania System of School Assessment tests administered annually to students in grades 3 through 8 and 11 in the areas of reading, writing, mathematics and science, students consistently score above state averages with the majority of students scoring advanced.
