Governor Mifflin Middle School

Governor Mifflin Middle School sits in Shillington, a quiet borough just outside Reading that has the feel of a classic Pennsylvania small town — sidewalk-lined streets, a tight-knit community, and easy access to the broader Berks County area. The school's academic scores land in the lower-middle range statewide, so families with strong academic priorities may want to weigh supplemental support options or look closely at how individual programs and teachers align with their child's needs. That said, the district has a loyal local following, and families rooted in the Shillington and Mohnton communities tend to value the sense of continuity and community connection that comes with a neighborhood school like this one.
