In September 2005 the School District of Philadelphia converted Rhodes Middle School, a coeducational middle school, into an all-female middle and high school.[1] During that year the district established The Young Men's Leadership School at Thomas FitzSimons High School for males.[2] The males zoned to the former FitzSimons and Rhodes zones were assigned to FitzSimons, while the females in the zones were assigned to Rhodes. After the redesign Rhodes reported a smooth transition.[1]
In March 2012, the Philadelphia School Reform Commission voted to turn Rhodes back into a co-educational middle school.[3] The students were reassigned to Strawberry Mansion High School.[4] The Rhodes campus now serves as a K-8 school.[5]
Transportation
SEPTA serves the school with Routes 32, 48, and 60.[6]
Feeder patterns
Feeder elementary schools included Thomas M. Peirce Elementary School, Anna B. Pratt School, John G. Whittier School, and Richard R. Wright School.[6] Ethel Allen School, a K-8 school, fed into Rhodes.[6]
