Among Reading’s many vibrant attractions are GoggleWorks Center for the Arts, Reading Public Museum, Mid-Atlantic Air Museum, the Pagoda, and FirstEnergy Stadium—home of the minor-league Reading Fightin Phils. Opportunities for outdoor adventure abound, with a host of scenic parks and more than 125 miles of biking and hiking trails in Greater Reading.

The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.
