Morrisville Middle/Senior High School

Morrisville Middle/Senior High School is a middle school/high school located in Morrisville, Bucks County, Pennsylvania, USA. The school is part of the School District of the Borough of Morrisville. The school district's area is approximately two square miles. Due to the district's small size, there is no busing. All the students walk to school. Morrisville has gone through a series of low test scores, which have been rising positively.

Academics

The three grades that make up the Middle School (6th-8th) are taught by grade level teams consisting of a Science, Math, English, Social Studies, and Special Education Teacher. The students also receive instruction from Special Subjects such as Business and Art.

Due to budget cuts from the Morrisville School District's School Board, Advanced Placement (AP) classes are not offered, and Honor's classes are available in English only.

Similarly, the school no longer functions as a separate entity from the elementary school: Third, fourth, and fifth grades, though primary education levels, have been moved to the same building as the secondary education building, making Morrisville Middle/Senior High School a 3rd-12th grade institution.

At the High School level the 9th Grade Academy functions similarly to the Middle School Teams but the students are in mixed grade electives. Upperclassman are all in mixed grade level classes.
