“Downtown” Philadelphia School Catchment Map

Public Schools in many changing neighborhoods of Philadelphia reflect their communities: diverse success stories which have shown steady improvement.

For home buyers, an improving school is a win-win to raise property values and make neighborhoods more desirable. This Philadelphia school catchment map, illustrated by Stephanie Frederick, is based on the city’s School Finder Tool. We hope this map will help our community get to know their neighborhood school and encourage them to recognize the school catchments.

 

Explore Philadelphia schools in each catchment below and leave a comment to share support for your neighborhood school with the Philly Family Community.
