Summary:

The Jersey Shore Area School District in Pennsylvania consists of 5 schools, including 3 elementary schools, 1 middle school, and 1 high school. The district as a whole is ranked 253 out of 606 school districts in Pennsylvania and is rated 3 out of 5 stars by SchoolDigger.

Among the schools in the district, Jersey Shore Area Middle School stands out as the top performer, ranking 223 out of 873 middle schools in Pennsylvania and earning a 4 out of 5 star rating from SchoolDigger. Meanwhile, Jersey Shore Area Elementary School has the highest test scores in the district, outperforming the district and state averages in both Math and English Language Arts across all grade levels. The school also has a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 11.4.

The district as a whole performs better than the state average on Keystone Exams and PSSA tests, particularly in English Language Arts. However, there is some variability in performance between the individual schools, with Avis Elementary and Salladasburg Elementary lagging behind the other schools in the district. The high free/reduced lunch rates across the district, ranging from 47.38% to 56.82%, indicate a relatively high level of economic disadvantage among the student population, which may present challenges in terms of providing additional support and resources.
