We’re pretty sure by the time you reach the end you’ll have some great contenders for your student in mind.
Our Main Line Parent team interviewed local families and educators to give you a personal look at the best private and independent schools. Theorganizations profiled below support the Main Line Parent Community and our team. We encourage you to visit each school you’re considering with a virtual or in person open house, there’s nothing quite like a personal tour to get to know a school’s community when you’re searching for the right fit.
