Summary:

Richard Allen Preparatory Charter School is the sole middle school located in the Richard Allen Preparatory Charter School district. Serving grades 5-8, the school has consistently underperformed compared to other middle schools across Pennsylvania, ranking 780 out of 891 in the 2023-2024 school year and receiving a 1 out of 5 star rating from SchoolDigger.

The school's academic performance is a significant concern, with proficiency rates on PSSA Math and English Language Arts tests well below the state averages across all grade levels. For example, in 2024-2025, only 2.5% of students were proficient or better in Math compared to the state average of 41.7%. Additionally, the school has an extremely high percentage of students (100.27%) receiving free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a high-poverty student population that may contribute to the academic challenges.

Despite the high spending per student ($18,033 in 2022-2023) and a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 11.8, the school's performance has been steadily declining, with its statewide ranking dropping from 780 out of 891 in 2023-2024 to 790 out of 873 in 2024-2025. Addressing the issues at Richard Allen Preparatory Charter School will likely require a comprehensive, data-driven approach to improve student outcomes and the overall quality of education.
