As Usual, Lower Merion And Harriton Are Outranked By Radnor And Conestoga – But As Always, LM Is Tops In Spending

On Tuesday (April 26), U.S. News & World Report revealed its 2022 rankings of what they consider to be the best high schools. Among 718 high schools in Pennsylvania, U.S. News ranked Lower Merion at #16 and Harriton clocked in at #22. Who can complain about that?

Well, there’s this. Some will say “there they go again, complaining.” Others will say “here we go again, constructively criticizing.”

U.S. News gave our neighbors’ schools – Radnor and Conestoga (Tredyffrin Easttown School District), rankings of #3 and #4, respectively. But in the competition to spend more per/capita than any other district, Lower Merion takes a back seat to nobody.
