Summary

Lackawanna Trail Junior/Senior High School is a public school serving 425 students in grades 7-12 in Factoryville, Pennsylvania. The school is part of the Lackawanna Trail School District, which is ranked 209 out of 606 districts in the state and has a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Academically, Lackawanna Trail's performance on PSSA and Keystone Exams is mixed compared to state and district averages. While the school performs better than the state in English Language Arts, it lags behind in Math and Science. For example, in 2024-2025, 53.9% of Lackawanna Trail students were proficient or better in PSSA English Language Arts, compared to 48.5% statewide. However, only 34.5% were proficient or better in PSSA Math, compared to 41.7% statewide. The school's Keystone Exam results are also uneven, with 79.6% proficient or better in Literature, but only 43.1% in Algebra I and 56.9% in Biology.

Lackawanna Trail generally outperforms nearby schools like Scranton High School, West Scranton High School, and Dunmore Junior/Senior High School in academic metrics, graduation rates, and student-teacher ratios. However, some schools like Abington Heights High School and Mountain View Junior/Senior High School have stronger overall performance. Lackawanna Trail's higher spending per student and lower student-teacher ratio compared to the state average suggest the school is investing in resources and staffing to support student learning, which may be a contributing factor to its relatively strong performance, particularly for its more vulnerable student populations.
