Middle Schools in Claysburg-Kimmel School District

Summary:

The Claysburg-Kimmel School District in Pennsylvania has only one middle school, Claysburg-Kimmel Junior High School, which serves students in grades 7-8. The school has seen a slight decline in its statewide ranking over the past three school years, from 251st in 2023-2024 to 294th in 2024-2025, with a rating of 3-4 out of 5 stars from SchoolDigger.

Claysburg-Kimmel Junior High School's academic performance is a mix, with strengths in English Language Arts (ELA) and science, but lower performance in math compared to the district and state averages. In 2024-2025, the school's math proficiency (33.4%) was lower than the district (37.3%) and state (41.7%) averages, while its ELA proficiency (52.2%) was higher than the district (47.3%) and state (48.5%) averages. The school's science proficiency in 2023-2024 (64.1%) was also higher than the state average (54.5%).

The school faces significant socioeconomic challenges, with a 100% free and reduced-price lunch rate, indicating a high percentage of students from low-income families. The school's high student-teacher ratio of 120:1 may also be a contributing factor to its academic performance. Despite these challenges, the school's per-student spending for the 2022-2023 school year was $18,063, which is higher than the typical middle school spending.
