School Organization
Four elementary schools cover the subsections of the district. The four are merged into the sole middle school.
Formerly General Wayne Middle School, a recent growth in the school district's population motivated the need for the new Great Valley Middle School to be built for the larger student body. After the new school was complete, General Wayne was closed for repairs and turned into a fourth elementary school. Sugartown Elementary students temporarily used this new building to allow for Sugartown's own renovation. Upon completion, the district had four functioning elementary schools that now feed into Great Valley Middle.
The high school also underwent a 4-year renovation that was completed during the 2006/2007 school year.

Famous quotes containing the words school and/or organization:
“Parental attitudes have greater correlation with pupil achievement than material home circumstances or variations in school and classroom organization, instructional materials, and particular teaching practices.”
—Children and Their Primary Schools, vol. 1, ch. 3, Central Advisory Council for Education, London (1967)
“The organization controlling the material equipment of our everyday life is such that what in itself would enable us to construct it richly plunges us instead into a poverty of abundance, making alienation all the more intolerable as each convenience promises liberation and turns out to be only one more burden. We are condemned to slavery to the means of liberation.”
—Raoul Vaneigem (b. 1934)
