Summary

Neason Hill Elementary School is a public elementary school in Meadville, Pennsylvania, serving 325 students in grades K-6 as part of the Crawford Central School District. Despite higher per-student spending and smaller class sizes, the school consistently underperforms compared to state and district averages in both Math and English Language Arts (ELA) proficiency across all grade levels.

Neason Hill Elementary School's academic performance has been declining over the past several years, with its statewide ranking dropping from 1016 out of 1530 Pennsylvania elementary schools in 2017-2018 to 1047 out of 1511 in 2024-2025. The school also struggles to support the academic achievement of specific student subgroups, with its rankings for White students, low socioeconomic status students, and disabled students consistently in the bottom quartile of Pennsylvania elementary schools. Nearby schools in the district, such as Cochranton Elementary School and West End Elementary School, consistently outperform Neason Hill Elementary School in both Math and ELA proficiency.

Despite the higher per-student spending and smaller class sizes, Neason Hill Elementary School has not been able to significantly improve its academic performance or close the achievement gaps for its struggling student subgroups. The school's extremely high percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, with 100% of students in this category in recent years, likely contributes to the school's academic challenges. These findings suggest the need for a comprehensive review and implementation of targeted interventions to address the root causes of the school's underperformance.
