Lehman Intermediate School

Nestled in the Pocono Mountains near the Delaware Water Gap, Dingmans Ferry has a quiet, rural charm that draws families looking for a slower pace without straying too far from the metro areas of New York and New Jersey. Lehman Intermediate School serves a spread-out community where outdoor recreation is part of everyday life, but families with strong academic priorities may find the school's performance scores — sitting in the lower ranges statewide — worth weighing carefully as they consider their options. It tends to be a good fit for families rooted in the local community who value the tight-knit feel of a smaller rural school over a high-pressure academic environment.
