South Philadelphia has a mainly immigrant, working-class population, while North Philadelphia and areas west of University Park are rough and somewhat rundown.

We use a different approach to the instruction which does not place a premium on time in class. We base our unit. of instruction on mastery of school subjects rather than on the time spent on them. In mastery learning, students. must demonstrate the knowledge of the subject to be learned before credit is given. We believe that mastery. learning provides the greatest opportunity for the students who are out of step with their coursework to catch up, or in many cases, to accelerate their high school program.
