Summary

Lewistown Intrmd School is a public elementary school serving grades 4-5 in the Mifflin County School District, located in Lewistown, PA. With 507 students, the school has consistently underperformed compared to state averages on PSSA tests in Math and English Language Arts, with only 34.5% and 31.9% of students proficient or better, respectively, compared to state averages of 41.7% and 48.5%.

Lewistown Intrmd School struggles to effectively serve its student subgroups, with rankings for female, male, white, low-socioeconomic, and disabled students all in the bottom 30% of Pennsylvania elementary schools. The school has been ranked in the bottom 30% of Pennsylvania elementary schools for the past 10 years, receiving a 1 or 2 star rating from SchoolDigger, indicating poor overall performance. Despite having a relatively low student-teacher ratio, the school's academic challenges persist, likely due to its high-poverty student population and limited resources, with per-student spending significantly lower than the state average.

In contrast, nearby schools outside the Mifflin County School District, such as Mount Nittany Elementary School and Centre Hall-Potter Elementary School, demonstrate much stronger academic performance, with proficiency rates well above the state averages. This highlights the significant disparities in educational opportunities and outcomes within the region.
