Summary:

The Canton Area School District in Pennsylvania has only one high school, Canton Junior/Senior High School, which serves students in grades 7-12. The school's performance has fluctuated in recent years, with its statewide ranking ranging from 415 to 499 out of 674-686 Pennsylvania high schools and its SchoolDigger rating varying between 1 and 2 stars out of 5.

Academically, Canton Junior/Senior High School's proficiency rates in PSSA Math and English Language Arts assessments have generally been higher than the state averages but lower than the district averages. However, the school's Keystone Exam proficiency rates in Algebra I and Literature have been lower than the state averages, while its Biology proficiency rate has been closer to the state average. The school has a high percentage of students (100%) eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a significant level of economic disadvantage among the student population.
