Haverford School is non sectarian, not a Quaker School. Haverford College is supported by the Quakers.

I think we may need to lock to this page. It is getting Vandalised almost everyday. Thesloth 15:52, 15 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

"the longest rivalry in High School sports" - This requires a citation, or some degree of supporting evidence :: Princess Tiswas 10:47, 22 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Wanted to point out that the "The" mentioned in the box above is necessary because it is an actual part of the school's name, in case there was any questioning of that. -CharonM72 (talk) 22:17, 4 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Student survey

Please stop adding the results of the survey of students at the school. The reliability and validity are in dispute according to the edit itself, and even if the results did represent the student population they have not been been published in a reliable source. ... discospinster _talk 22:12, 15 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Academics

The section on Academics is a flood of incredibly fulsome spamming. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 213.123.215.180 (talk) 09:45, 28 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Distance from Philadelphia

In the introduction, it says it is nine miles from Philly. Later, it says it is ten miles from Philly. According to distancefromto.net, it is 8.5 miles from Philly.

Also, should we clear the discrepancy between 8.5 miles from CC and 4 miles from Overbrook? Robert1010102 (talk) 03:48, 22 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Athletics

Isn't it kind of odd to put the section on athletics ahead of just about everything else. It suggests that that is the most important thing about the school, which seems not to be true.Bill (talk) 22:36, 20 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
