Summary

Boothwyn Elementary School is a public elementary school serving grades K-4 in the Chichester School District in Pennsylvania. With 273 students, the school stands out for its consistently strong academic performance, particularly in science, where it outpaces both the district and the state averages.

Boothwyn Elementary School's PSSA (Pennsylvania System of School Assessment) test scores are impressive, with 57.8% of students proficient or better in math and 47.8% in English language arts, compared to the district's 31% and 45.5%, respectively, and the state's 41.7% and 48.5%. The school's science performance is especially noteworthy, with 79.6% of students proficient or better, well above the district's 59.1% and the state's 65.8%. Within the Chichester School District, Boothwyn Elementary outperforms the other elementary schools, Marcus Hook Elementary and Hilltop Elementary, in both academic achievement and student-teacher ratio.

While Boothwyn Elementary School's performance is strong within its district, it faces stiffer competition when compared to schools in the neighboring Penn-Delco School District and Garnet Valley School District, particularly in math and English language arts. However, the school's consistent performance over time and its ability to support its economically disadvantaged students suggest a well-managed and supportive learning environment for all its students.
