The school's academic performance is particularly impressive, with 71.4% of 4th graders proficient or better in ELA, compared to the state average of 53.6%. In math, 50% of 4th and 5th graders were proficient or better, again exceeding the state averages of 46.7% and 44.2%, respectively. Lebanon Borough School also has relatively low chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 2.9% to 16.6% in recent years, which is generally lower than the nearby schools.

Open Quote I attended this school from kindergarten through sixth grade, had several intern teaching positions, substitute taught, and even interviewed to become a teacher at this school. I absolutely love everyone at this school and feel like the smallness of it makes it feel like a family. My dream would be to one day become a teacher in this school, but we will see what the future has in store for me. Close Quote
