The School District
The community shows their "Quaker Pride" in their continued support of the school district. The renovation of New Philadelphia High School took place in 1992, updating the school into a state of the art facility. In addition, twenty-four new classrooms, computer labs, science labs, and a large computer-accessed library were added at that time and the original 1913 structure was completely remodeled.


The district serves approximately 3,000 students K-12, enrolled in five K-5 elementary buildings, one 6-8 middle school, and one 9-12 comprehensive high school.
New Philadelphia High School
New Philadelphia High School’s curriculum offerings include: Advanced Placement Courses in English, Mathematics, Science, and Social Studies; Project Lead the Way – a four year pre-engineering program; and, a comprehensive listing of core and elective courses. In addition to academics, NPHS has a multitude of boys and girls athletic teams; co-curricular activities including the visual and performing arts; and, extra curricular clubs and activities, as well as, opportunities to perform community service, tutor, shadow, and intern.
The district curriculum emphasizes traditional academic subjects, but also includes differentiated instruction for gifted and talented students.  Special education classrooms for the developmentally handicapped, hearing impaired, learning disabled, autistic, and multi-handicapped are available. The area's first district pre-school program is located in South Elementary School. An excellent vocational education opportunity may be obtained through Buckeye Career Center located in New Philadelphia, as well as post-secondary education at our local Kent State University Tuscarawas.
