Summary:

The Sela PCS area has one elementary school, Sela PCS, serving prekindergarten through grade 5, with 302 students. In 2025–26, its all-grades English Language Arts (ELA) proficiency was 46%, compared with 40% statewide, a 7-point advantage. Mathematics was the clearest strength: 55% of students were proficient, 27 points above the state’s 28%.

Because this area has just one school, Sela PCS is technically both the highest- and lowest-scoring school in the list, but that is not a meaningful school-to-school ranking. Its grade-level results show why the all-grades ELA figure does not tell the whole story: 3rd-grade ELA was 32 points above the state, 4th grade was 15 points below, and 5th grade was 5 points above. Mathematics was also strong in 3rd grade, at 67% proficient versus 41% statewide, a 26-point lead. The available 5th-grade science result was a modest exception: 19% proficient, 2 points below the state’s 20%.

All-grades results improved from 2024–25 to 2025–26, and the school’s advantages over the state widened in both subjects. ELA rose from 40% to 46%, while the state increased from 38% to 40%; the school’s lead grew from 3 to 7 points. Mathematics rose from 38% to 55%, compared with a state increase from 26% to 28%; the lead expanded from 12 to 27 points. SchoolDigger lists the school at rank 22 of 126 in 2023–24, 35 of 128 in 2024–25, and 33 of 124 in 2025–26; each entry shows four stars. The school’s student-teacher ratio was 7:1, and 25% of students were directly certified for free meals in 2024–25. With only one school in the list, there is no meaningful comparison with other area schools.
