Summary:
The 19713 zip code area in Delaware is home to 10 schools, including 5 elementary schools, 2 middle schools, 1 high school, and 2 alternative schools, all part of the Christina School District. While the district is ranked 17 out of 32 in the state with a 3-star rating, some schools within the district stand out for their academic performance.
Christiana High School is a standout, ranked 22 out of 41 Delaware high schools with a 2-star rating. It boasts a high 4-year graduation rate of 88.9% and a low dropout rate of 3.9%, while outperforming the district and state averages on most standardized test scores, particularly in English Language Arts. Additionally, Gallaher (Robert S.) Elementary School and Smith (Jennie E.) Elementary School are ranked in the top 60 out of 109 Delaware elementary schools, with a 2-star rating, and they also perform better than the district and state averages on many standardized test scores.
The two alternative schools in the area, Brennen School (The) and Delaware School for the Deaf, stand out with significantly higher per-student spending and lower student-teacher ratios, likely due to the specialized nature of their programs. However, the chronic absenteeism rate of 20.4% across all schools in the 19713 zip code area is concerning and suggests a need for further investigation and interventions to improve student attendance.
