Summary:
The 13308 zip code has only one school, McConnellsville Elementary School, which serves grades PK-4 and is part of the Camden Central School District. The school has seen a declining statewide ranking over the past three years, from 1927 out of 2445 elementary schools in 2023-2024 to 2337 out of 2445 in 2024-2025, and maintains a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.
McConnellsville Elementary School's academic performance is significantly below the district and state averages in both English Language Arts (ELA) and Math for 3rd and 4th grades. For example, in 4th grade ELA, the school's proficiency rate was 23.26%, compared to the district's 36.23% and the state's 54.07%. Similarly, in 4th grade Math, the school's proficiency rate was 28.57%, compared to the district's 37.5% and the state's 58.64%. Additionally, nearly half of the school's students (48.87%) are eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a high-need community.
Despite the relatively high spending per student at $22,074, the school's academic performance remains below the district and state averages, suggesting that additional resources alone may not be enough to address the school's challenges. The school's student-teacher ratio of 20.7 is also higher than the state average, which may contribute to the academic struggles faced by students at McConnellsville Elementary School.
