The North Pocono High School is located on Bochicchio Blvd in Covington Township, Lackawanna County, Pennsylvania. The school was built in 2009. It is the only high school in the North Pocono School District, which covers a vast amount of territory in Northeast Pennsylvania, including parts of Wayne County and all of southern and east-central Lackawanna County. Because the district covers so much territory, the high school serves a student population of over 1000 students, which is an average size for high schools in the region.
The old high school, located on Church Street in the Borough of Moscow, is now the North Pocono Middle School and houses grades 6 through 8, with the new high school containing grades 9 through 12.
Usually there are over 70 faculty members, which creates a teacher-student ratio of 1:15. Each grade consists of approximately 220-280 students.
