Rating 3.82 out of 5 57 reviews
It's true that Council Rock was a good school district 20+ years ago. That is most definitely not the case anymore. If your child is white and an A+ honors student than this district is a perfect match for you. If not then I would strongly recommend avoiding this school district. They do not care at all about parental opinions. At Council Rock the school is always right and the parent is always wrong.. Just try communicating with the teachers and faculty. Most will ignore emails for days and even weeks in some cases. They are only concerned about test scores, maintaining status, and their salaries. It is easily one of the most overrated school districts on the east coast.
Real estate agents will boast about CRSD being an award winning school district, but it is not. Multiple teachers have been arrested for inappropriate conduct with students. There have been several different superintendents in the last 4-5 years. Teachers are only here for the high salary. CRSD used to rank high about 10 years ago, but the district keeps slipping down the scale. It is very unfortunate.
The district doesn’t believe that the COVID-19 pandemic is real and is ignoring the mask mandate imposed by the state department of health by allowing parents to sign an illegal form to opt out of masks for their children. The school board has a total disregard for the health and safety of the children in the district.
