Summary:
The Eastern Lebanon County School District has only one high school, Eastern Lebanon County Senior High School, which serves students in grades 9-12. The school's performance has declined in recent years, with its statewide ranking dropping from 189th out of 674 Pennsylvania high schools in 2022-2023 to 360th out of 681 in 2024-2025, and its rating decreasing from 4 stars to 2 stars out of 5.
While the school's four-year graduation rate of 87.9% is slightly lower than the state average, its dropout rate of 1.4% is lower than the state average. However, the school's proficiency rates on Keystone Exams are generally lower than the state averages, particularly in Algebra I and Biology, though its proficiency rate in Literature is higher than the state average. The school has a relatively high percentage of students (43.62%) receiving free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a higher proportion of economically disadvantaged students.
Despite the school's higher spending per student ($14,200) and lower student-teacher ratio (14.5) compared to state averages, its academic performance is not significantly outpacing the state. This suggests a need to evaluate the effectiveness of resource allocation and explore ways to better support the school's economically disadvantaged student population in order to improve overall academic outcomes.
