Summary:

The McGuffey School District in Pennsylvania has only one high school, McGuffey High School, which serves students in grades 9-12. While the school's performance is generally below the state average, it is often on par with or slightly better than the district's overall performance.

McGuffey High School's four-year graduation rate of 87.9% is slightly lower than the state average, but its dropout rate of 1.4% is lower than the state average. The school's performance on the Keystone Exams is mixed, with students scoring below the state average in Algebra I and Biology, but closer to the state average in Literature. The school's spending per student is $13,988, and it has a student-teacher ratio of 12.4.

Over the past few years, McGuffey High School's statewide ranking has declined, from 383 out of 686 Pennsylvania high schools in 2023-2024 to 470 out of 681 in 2024-2025, with a consistent 2-star rating out of 5. This trend is worth monitoring, and the relatively low test scores, particularly in Biology, suggest areas for improvement. Additionally, the high percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch (41.42%) indicates that the school serves a relatively economically disadvantaged population, which may impact academic performance and resource needs.
