The schools in the district generally outperform the state average in PSSA proficiency, but there are some differences in student populations. E.M. Crouthamel Elementary School has the highest free and reduced lunch rate at 57.4%, suggesting a more economically disadvantaged student body, and also has the lowest test scores and state rankings among the schools. Overall, the district appears to be effectively allocating resources, with similar spending per student and relatively low student-teacher ratios across the schools.
