Summary

Chartiers Valley Middle School is a public middle school located in Bridgeville, PA, serving 787 students in grades 6-8 as part of the Chartiers Valley School District. While the school's academic performance is generally below the state and district averages, particularly in Math, it performs better in English Language Arts and Science.

Chartiers Valley Middle School's PSSA test scores show a proficiency rate of 38.3% in Math, compared to the district's 51.4% and the state's 41.7%. However, the school's English Language Arts proficiency rate of 57.5% is higher than the district's 54.1% and the state's 48.5%. In Science, the school's proficiency rate of 58.8% is also relatively strong, though still below the district's 67% and the state's 65.8%. The school's performance varies across different student subgroups, with lower rankings for Asian, Multi-racial, Low Socio-Economic Status, and Disabled students.

Compared to nearby high-performing schools like South Fayette Middle School, Fort Couch Middle School, and Mellon Middle School, Chartiers Valley Middle School's academic performance is generally lower. However, it outperforms the nearby Pittsburgh public middle schools.
