Summary

Eddystone Elementary School is a public elementary school serving 230 students in grades K-5 in the Ridley School District in Pennsylvania. While the school has consistently been ranked in the bottom half of Pennsylvania elementary schools, with a current 2-star rating, there are some interesting insights that parents should know.

Academically, Eddystone Elementary underperforms compared to the district and state averages, with only 40% of students proficient or better in English Language Arts and 45.7% in math. However, the school does perform relatively well for its African American students, ranking in the top 15% of Pennsylvania elementary schools for this subgroup. In contrast, the school's White, low socioeconomic status, and disabled student populations all rank in the bottom half of the state. The school also has very high rates of free and reduced-price lunch recipients, ranging from 80-92% over the past few years, which is significantly higher than nearby Ridley School District schools.

When comparing Eddystone Elementary to other schools in the Ridley district, such as Grace Park Elementary, Leedom Elementary, and Lakeview Elementary, the school appears to be the weakest performer, with lower academic achievement and higher poverty rates. Despite spending more per student than the state average, Eddystone still lags behind its peers in the district, raising questions about whether the school is receiving equitable resources.
