More than 30 years ago, the Student Education Center was a small tutoring school offering enrichment classes.
From that beginning, our school has become a full-service educational facility.
Although our enrollment has increased with each succeeding year, we have always emphasized the need for small classes, personalized attention, and concern for the student as an individual.
Our goal has been to help students prepare themselves for life in a complex and demanding society.
Formerly Student Education Center, Delaware Valley High School is a small private school located in Center City Philadelphia.
We are proud of the fact that 90 percent of our students have been referred to us by former students.
