Propel Cs-McKeesport's proficiency rates on the PSSA tests are significantly lower than the state averages across all grades and subjects, with only 20.3% of students proficient in Math compared to the state average of 41.7%. The school also has a high dropout rate of 1.4%.

The data indicates that Propel Cs-McKeesport is a struggling school that is underperforming academically compared to other schools in Pennsylvania. The high concentration of students from low-income families, as evidenced by the 99.04% of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, may be a contributing factor to the school's academic challenges. Further investigation into the school's practices and resource allocation could help identify areas for improvement and support the school in providing a higher-quality education to its students.
