School Overview

Wagner Gen Louis Middle School sits in the upper reaches of North Philadelphia, a neighborhood with deep roots and a tight-knit residential character that's a world away from the busier parts of the city. The school faces real academic challenges, with test scores ranking among the lowest in Pennsylvania, and families who prioritize strong academic performance will want to weigh that carefully. That said, Philadelphia's public school landscape offers a wide range of magnet and choice options, and families in this zip code have access to the city's broader school selection process if Wagner isn't the right fit.
