New Hope-Solebury School District is the only school district that educates children in Solebury Township, Pennsylvania; and the Borough of New Hope, Pennsylvania. New Hope-Solebury School District includes the communities of New Hope, Solebury, Lahaska, Carversville, and Lumberville, enrolling 1,285 students in 2023.[1] Covering 28.57 square miles,[2] New Hope-Solebury School District is relatively small and rural compared to the larger and more urbanized public school districts that surround it.
Within the school district is one elementary school (broken into two campuses), one middle school and one high school. All schools except one of the elementary schools reside on the same campus in downtown New Hope. Since 2000, both the middle school and high school have been renovated and a second elementary school campus has been added.
