Summary

Mifflin Park Elementary School is a public elementary school in Shillington, Pennsylvania, serving 486 students in grades K-4 as part of the Governor Mifflin School District. While the school has consistently ranked in the bottom half of Pennsylvania elementary schools over the past decade, there are some bright spots and interesting comparisons to nearby schools.

However, the school's performance on PSSA Science tests is relatively strong, with proficiency rates around 80% in recent years, exceeding the state average.

However, the school's performance for Hispanic students has shown improvement, with a higher ranking and proficiency rates compared to other student subgroups. The school's leadership and the Governor Mifflin School District should focus on implementing targeted interventions and strategies to address these areas of concern and improve the overall educational outcomes for all students at Mifflin Park Elementary School.
