Summary

Victory Elementary School is a public elementary school located in Harrisville, Pennsylvania, serving grades PK-6 with a total enrollment of 211 students. The school is part of the Franklin Area School District, which is ranked 356 out of 606 districts in Pennsylvania and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Victory Elementary School consistently ranks in the bottom quartile of Pennsylvania elementary schools, with a ranking between 1,088 and 1,207 out of 1,511 schools in the 2024-2025 school year. The school's performance on PSSA tests is significantly below the state and district averages, with proficiency rates in Math and English Language Arts for all grades at 27.5% and 28.7%, respectively, compared to the state averages of 41.7% and 48.5%. The school's performance is particularly weak in Math, with proficiency rates ranging from 15.3% to 35.3% across different grade levels, compared to the state averages of 44% to 53.5%. Interestingly, the nearby Central Elementary School and Sandycreek Elementary School, which are also part of the Franklin Area School District, generally perform better academically than Victory Elementary School.

Victory Elementary School has a very high percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, reaching 100% in the 2023-2024 and 2022-2023 school years. This high rate of economically disadvantaged students is a key factor that likely contributes to the school's academic challenges. Despite the relatively high per-student spending and low student-teacher ratio, the school's academic performance remains significantly below state and district averages, suggesting that the school may need to re-evaluate its instructional practices and strategies to better support student learning. The inconsistent performance of Victory Elementary School over the years also indicates a need for a more comprehensive and sustained approach to school improvement.
