6 Bryn Mawr Schools Among State's Best, List Says

BRYN MAWR, PA — Schools across Pennsylvania strive for greatness among their students, faculty, and staff. Unfortunately, some do better than others, and data compiler Niche recently listed the best public and private schools in the state.

So which Bryn Mawr schools made the list?

Niche.com, which specializes in all different types of rankings, including schools, has created a new list that is a bit different than the usual lists the company is known for. In this one, Niche has included both Public and Private Schools. That may not sound different than Niche's usual rankings but this list includes both private and public schools and also includes elementary, middle and high schools all in the same list. Please note that this is not a ranking, but a search list, where you can see and compare all schools grouped together, organized by Overall Grade.

Each school received a letter grade in the following categories: Academics; Diversity; Teachers; College Prep; Clubs & Activities; Health & Safety; Administration; Sports; Food; and Resources & Facilities.

Niche's methodology is based on an analysis of academic and student-life data from the US Department of Education along with test scores, and feedback from Niche.com users. You can read the full methodology here.

The Baldwin School in Bryn Mawr, The Agnes Irwin School in Rosemont, Harriton Senior High School in the Lower Merion School District, The Shipley School, Jack M. Barrack Hebrew Academy and Sacred Heart Academy all made the list.
