District
Welcome to the Hampton Township School District and the 2010-11 School Year!
Last year was another great year.
Notwithstanding our tradition of excellence and long list of accomplishments, it appears as though the District continues to get better and better every year. For example, during the past year, the district was once again recognized by the Pittsburgh Business Times as one of the best districts in the entire Commonwealth and the high school was again recognized by Newsweek as being with the top 5 percent of high schools in the United States. However, for the first time, the Township and District were recognized by Forbes magazine as being one of the “25 Best Places for Your Housing Buck.” Additionally, Family Circle magazine ranked Hampton Township as the number two community in the United States, in part because of the “stellar schools.”
Although we have received considerable recognition over the last year, we will not rest on our laurels. We will strive to reach new heights, and enhance our tradition of excellence. We will continue to focus on improving teaching and learning, so that we can prepare our students for a promising future in the 21st Century.
Have a wonderful school year!
