However, the school's science proficiency rates are closer to the state average, with 4th grade performing better than 8th grade.

Montessori Regional Charter School has consistently received a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger over the past three school years, placing it in the bottom quarter of Pennsylvania elementary schools. The school's district ranking is also in the bottom quarter of the state, further highlighting the need for substantial improvements to better support the educational needs of its students.
