School Overview

South Scranton Intermediate School serves a tight-knit corner of one of Pennsylvania's most historically grounded cities, where old-school Northeast PA grit meets a community that genuinely looks out for its own. Families in this part of Scranton tend to be deeply rooted here, and the school reflects that working-class, no-frills character. While academics are an area of ongoing growth, families who are engaged and proactive about supplementing their child's education may find a close community feel that's harder to come by in larger, more transient districts.
