Devon is in the Tredyffrin/Easttown School District (T/E). Most homes are assigned to Devon Elementary, some to Hillside Elementary, and all attend Conestoga High School.
Private schools close by include Devon Preparatory School, a Catholic school for boys in grades 6 to 12 founded in 1956, and the elementary campus of Delaware County Christian School.
The Devon Horse Show
The Devon Horse Show and Country Fair has been held every year since 1896. For about 11 days in late May and early June, the grounds along Lancaster Avenue fill with show jumping, carriage driving, a country fair, and a Ferris wheel, with proceeds benefiting Bryn Mawr Hospital. Dressage at Devon follows each September.
The show is part of the community’s identity, and it also means heavier traffic on Lancaster Avenue during those weeks.
