Broughal
(Brock-al) Middle School is in the
heart of the South Side of Bethlehem,
PA, about an hour's drive south of
New York City, and fifty miles north
of Philadelphia. It is located on
the same side of Bethlehem as the
Bethlehem Steel plant, which has
closed, but remains a major part
of the South Side's history. The
opening of the steel plant caused
many people to immigrate to the Lehigh
Valley, looking for work. Though
the South Side was once a declining
neighborhood, it is now beginning
to flourish due in part to the strong
involvement of the many small businesses
and community residents that have
made their home on the South Side.
Broughal Middle School has three
grades, sixth, seventh, and
eighth. An ethnically
diverse population of approximately
600 students attend Broughal, which
makes it the smallest middle school
in Bethlehem Area School District.
