Summary:

The Forest City Regional School District in Pennsylvania operates two schools: Forest City Regional Elementary School and Forest City Regional High School. While the high school has shown signs of improvement, with a strong 4-year graduation rate and above-average performance on Keystone Exams, the elementary school appears to be facing declining academic performance.

The high school stands out for its relatively high 4-year graduation rate of 87.9% and a low dropout rate of 1.4%. Additionally, the school's performance on Keystone Exams is noteworthy, with 47.5% proficient or better in Algebra I, 64.1% in Biology, and 63.4% in Literature, all of which exceed the state averages. The high school's statewide ranking has also improved over the past few years, moving from 460 out of 674 Pennsylvania high schools in 2022-2023 to 245 out of 681 in 2024-2025, earning it a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger.

In contrast, the elementary school's overall math and English language arts (ELA) proficiency rates for all grades are below the state averages, indicating potential room for improvement in the upper elementary grades. The school's statewide ranking has also dropped from 982 out of 1,526 Pennsylvania elementary schools in 2023-2024 to 890 out of 1,511 in 2024-2025, suggesting a decline in performance. Both schools have relatively high free and reduced lunch rates, suggesting a need to address potential equity and resource allocation issues within the district.
