I thought northwestern Lehigh was a decent school but idk. I went to Parkland (and grew up very close to the Lowhill border, actually) which is considered one of the best schools in the area and honestly, I feel like "good" schools are somewhat overrated. The teachers at Parkland were hit or miss - some were really good, but there were just as many that didn't teach much. The worst was one of my French teachers, who did absolutely nothing at all, except occasionally give us projects to complete.

I did well academically and got into a "top" university, but that was mostly because of stuff I did outside of school, because my parents pushed me to go beyond the school curriculum and compete in math/science competitions. I don't think I would have been any worse off going to an "okay" high school.
