Testimonials

Why Mifflin? Simply put, education is not restricted to what’s found in textbooks or measured only through official testing. My daughter is thriving not only because of the curriculum, but the emotional development and care she receives by the entire Mifflin family. We’re building our future thought leaders. I’m proud that my daughter is learning from role models that are passionate about the work they do, and see our children as more than a student in class, but a person that will do great things for our communities and society as a whole.
— Lauren K., Mifflin Parent

Thomas Mifflin is not just a school but it’s truly a family. The teachers, students, and staff all going above and beyond to make connections and build a positive atmosphere for my peers and me. A great curriculum, as well as, many programs such as STEAM, Big Brother/Sister, and an amazing theatre program are some of the amazing things Mifflin offers. My education at Mifflin prepared me immensely for my future as a young adult.
