Summary:
Carmichaels Area School District has only one middle school, Carmichaels Area Middle School, which serves grades 6-8. Located in Carmichaels, Pennsylvania, the school has a student enrollment of 236 and a high percentage of students (98.73%) receiving free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a predominantly low-income student population.
Carmichaels Area Middle School is a low-performing school, ranking between 505th and 549th out of 873 to 893 Pennsylvania middle schools and receiving a 2 out of 5-star rating from SchoolDigger. The school's proficiency rates in PSSA Math and English Language Arts (ELA) have consistently been below the state averages over the past two school years, with only 16.7% proficient or better in Math and 44.1% in ELA, compared to the state averages of 41.7% and 48.5%, respectively. The school's proficiency rate in PSSA Science was also lower than the district and state averages.
Despite the school's high per-student spending of $29,398 and a student-teacher ratio of 15.2, the academic outcomes have not been commensurate with the resources invested. This suggests that the Carmichaels Area School District may need to implement targeted interventions and strategies to address the specific needs of the student population and improve the overall educational quality at Carmichaels Area Middle School.
