Summary

Leedom Elementary School is a public elementary school in Ridley Park, Pennsylvania, serving 281 students in grades K-5. The school is part of the Ridley School District, which is ranked 321 out of 606 school districts in the state.

Leedom Elementary consistently outperforms the Ridley School District and the state of Pennsylvania in PSSA test scores for Math and English Language Arts (ELA) across all grade levels. In the 2024-2025 school year, Leedom's Math proficiency rate for all grades was 56%, compared to 37.9% for the district and 41.7% for the state. The school's 4th-grade Math and ELA proficiency rates are particularly strong, with 69.7% and 57.6% respectively, outperforming both the district and state. Leedom's disabled students and low socioeconomic status (SES) students also perform exceptionally well compared to their peers in the state.

Leedom Elementary's high per-student spending of $24,351 and low student-teacher ratio of around 10.5 students per teacher may contribute to its academic success. However, the school's leadership and the district should continue to monitor and address any persistent achievement gaps to ensure equitable opportunities for all students. Compared to nearby schools, Amosland Elementary and Grace Park Elementary have similar academic performance, while Eddystone Elementary and other Interboro School District schools lag behind Leedom in academic achievement.
