Summary

Wyalusing Valley Elementary School is a public elementary school serving 647 students in grades K-6 in the Wyalusing Area School District located in Wyalusing, Pennsylvania. The school consistently outperforms state and district averages in both Math and English Language Arts (ELA) proficiency, with particularly strong performance in Science. Wyalusing Valley Elementary also excels in supporting its low socioeconomic status (SES) students, ranking significantly higher than its overall statewide ranking.

Despite these academic strengths, Wyalusing Valley Elementary's statewide ranking and SchoolDigger star rating have been declining in recent years, from a ranking of 749 and 3 stars in 2023-2024 to a ranking of 821 and 2 stars in 2024-2025. This suggests the school may be struggling to keep pace with improvements in other Pennsylvania elementary schools. Additionally, the school has seen a significant increase in the percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, from 50.62% in 2021-2022 to 99.54% in 2023-2024, which likely contributes to its lower overall ranking.

Compared to nearby schools, such as Northeast Bradford Elementary, Wyalusing Valley Elementary generally outperforms them in both Math and ELA proficiency, particularly in the lower grades. However, the school's performance lags behind some of the nearby schools in the upper grades. Despite these challenges, Wyalusing Valley Elementary has a relatively low student-teacher ratio and high per-student spending, indicating it has access to significant resources that may contribute to its strong academic performance.
