West Mifflin Area School District

The West Mifflin Area School District in Pennsylvania serves students from preschool through 12th grade across 4 schools - 2 elementary schools, 1 middle school, and 1 high school. While the district as a whole is performing below average compared to other districts in the state, a few standout schools within the district are showing impressive results.

Homeville Elementary School and Clara Barton Elementary School have significantly higher proficiency rates in both Math and English Language Arts compared to the district and state averages. In contrast, the middle and high schools in the district struggle to meet those benchmarks, with proficiency rates well below the state average across subjects like Algebra I and Literature.

The data also reveals concerning trends, such as the high school's declining performance and ranking over the past few years. Additionally, all schools in the district have 100% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a high level of economic disadvantage among the student population. While the district's spending per student is in line with the state average, there may be opportunities to better allocate resources and support to address these challenges and improve student outcomes across the board.
