Summary:
The Tunkhannock Area School District in Pennsylvania operates two elementary schools: the Tunkhannock Area Intermediate Center (grades 3-6) and the Tunkhannock Area Primary Center (grades K-2). While the schools serve a high-poverty student population, with 100% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, they do not stand out as exceptional performers on key metrics like standardized test scores.
The Tunkhannock Area Intermediate Center's PSSA Math and ELA proficiency rates are generally below the state average, with some exceptions in 3rd and 4th grade Math. The Tunkhannock Area Primary Center's test score data is not provided, as it only covers the early grades. Both schools, however, spend significantly more per student than the state average, likely due to the high-poverty student population and the need for additional resources and support. The schools also have lower student-teacher ratios than the state average, suggesting smaller class sizes, but this does not appear to be translating into significantly higher academic performance.
Overall, the Tunkhannock Area School District is ranked 395 out of 606 districts in Pennsylvania and is rated 2 out of 5 stars by SchoolDigger. Neither the Tunkhannock Area Intermediate Center nor the Tunkhannock Area Primary Center stands out as a high-performing institution within the district or the state, indicating a need for targeted interventions and support to improve student outcomes across the district.
