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.
Despite the school's academic challenges, the Canton Area School District is investing heavily in Canton Junior/Senior High School, with a per-student spending of $21,486 for the 2022-2023 school year, which is significantly higher than the state average. The school also has a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 12:1, which could be a positive factor in supporting student learning and achievement.
