Summary:
The Keystone Oaks School District in Pennsylvania is home to three elementary schools: Dormont Elementary School, Myrtle Ave School, and Fred L Aiken Elementary School. These schools serve students from pre-kindergarten through 5th grade and are located within the Keystone Oaks community.
Based on the data, Dormont Elementary School and Fred L Aiken Elementary School are the standout performers in the district. Both schools consistently rank among the top elementary schools in Pennsylvania, with Dormont Elementary School earning a 5-star rating and Fred L Aiken Elementary School earning a 4- or 5-star rating from SchoolDigger. These top-performing schools significantly outpace the district and state averages in PSSA Math and English Language Arts proficiency across all grade levels.
In contrast, Myrtle Ave School lags behind the other two schools in academic performance, with proficiency rates below the district and state averages in most subject areas. The district as a whole spends more per student compared to the state average, which may contribute to the relatively strong academic performance of the top-performing schools. However, the data suggests that socioeconomic factors may play a significant role in the observed disparities within the district, as the top-performing schools have lower free/reduced lunch rates, indicating a more affluent student population.
