Summary:
The Northern Cambria Elementary School is the sole elementary school serving the Northern Cambria School District in Pennsylvania. The school serves students from pre-kindergarten through 4th grade and is located in a predominantly low-income community, as evidenced by the high percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch.
While the school's performance on PSSA Math assessments has been above the state average, its PSSA ELA proficiency rates have generally lagged behind. The school's PSSA Science proficiency, however, has been significantly higher than the state average. The school's overall statewide ranking has fluctuated between 871 and 1,107 out of 1,511 to 1,534 Pennsylvania elementary schools over the past three school years, indicating a need for improvement in certain academic areas.
The Northern Cambria School District as a whole is ranked 255 out of 606 districts in Pennsylvania and is rated 3 out of 5 stars by SchoolDigger, suggesting that the district may face broader challenges that could impact the performance of its individual schools, including Northern Cambria Elementary. The school's relatively small class sizes, with a student-to-teacher ratio of 9.5 to 1, could be a potential strength that the school can leverage to provide more individualized attention and support to its students.
