Summary

Richard J. Hyde Elementary School is a public elementary school in Moon Township, Pennsylvania, serving students from kindergarten to 4th grade as part of the Moon Area School District.

The school has shown a mixed academic performance, with strengths in Science but lower proficiency rates in Math and English Language Arts compared to the district and state averages. While the school's performance for specific student subgroups, such as White students and English Language Learners, has been relatively stronger, the high percentage of students from low-income families suggests the need for continued focus on addressing socioeconomic factors that may impact academic achievement. The school's resource allocation, with a low student-teacher ratio and increasing per-student spending, indicates a commitment to providing a more personalized learning environment for its students.

Comparing Richard J. Hyde Elementary School to the nearby high-performing schools within the Moon Area School District, such as Bon Meade Elementary, McCormick Elementary, J.H. Brooks Elementary, and J.A. Allard Elementary, highlights the potential for improvement and the opportunity to learn from the successful practices of these schools.
