<p>Anyone have any knowledge of this school?</p>
<p>Solebury is in a beautiful area, near New Hope (Bucks County, PA). It’s less than an hour from Philadelphia, and less than 2 hours from New York. I don’t think its academic standards are very high, but I’ve heard that it’s very good for students who can benefit from extra attention. I noticed that you’re already considering George and Westtown, as well. George and Solebury are quite close to one another. I would say that George is the stronger school. If you are looking for other, less selective schools in that general area (ie. not Lawrenceville, Peddie, or Hill), you might also consider The Hun School of Princeton. Its location is unbeatable, but I don’t think it is as strong as George or Westtown academically.</p>
