Spring-Ford Area School District - List of Schools

List of Schools

Attendance at elementary schools (K-4) is determined by place of residency within the school district. While the elementary schools below are grouped by municipality, students residing in other municipalities most likely attend that school alongside students from the municipality in which the school is located. Above 4th Grade, all students within the school district attend schools by grade, regardless of place of residency within the school district.

Most of the elementary schools are named based on location, although Brooke and Evans are named after two of the founding families of Limerick Township.

Due to the unprecedented rapid growth of the school district in the 1990s, many of these school buildings have changed roles a number of times through the years.

The current 8th Grade Center was originally the Royersford Junior/Senior High School, hosting grades 7 through 12. From 1961 to 1982, it served as the Spring-Ford Junior High School, hosting grades 7 through 9. It was later converted to a middle school that hosted grades 6 through 8.

The 9th Grade Center was built in 1961 and was used as the Spring-Ford Senior High School for grades 10 through 12 until 1982, when it hosted grades 9 through 12. After the new high school was built, it hosted grades 7 and 8 before being converted to the 9th Grade Center.

One of the buildings previously serving as the Royersford Elementary School is currently the Royersford Free Public Library, and also served as the building for the Spring-Ford Area Historical Society for a short period of time.

Famous quotes containing the words list of, list and/or schools:

    “I made a list of things I have
    to remember and a list
    of things I want to forget,
    but I see they are the same list.”
    —Linda Pastan (b. 1932)

    “I am opposed to writing about the private lives of living authors and psychoanalyzing them while they are alive. Criticism is getting all mixed up with a combination of the Junior F.B.I.- men, discards from Freud and Jung and a sort of Columnist peep- hole and missing laundry list school.... Every young English professor sees gold in them dirty sheets now. Imagine what they can do with the soiled sheets of four legal beds by the same writer and you can see why their tongues are slavering.”
    —Ernest Hemingway (1899–1961)

    “Our good schools today are much better than the best schools of yesterday. When I was your age and a pupil in school, our teachers were our enemies.
    Can any thing ... be more painful to a friendly mind, than a necessity of communicating disagreeable intelligence? Indeed it is sometimes difficult to determine, whether the relator or the receiver of evil tidings is most to be pitied.”
    —Frances Burney (1752–1840)
