Summary:
The 15227 zip code in Pennsylvania has only one middle school, Brentwood Middle School, which serves students in grades 6-8. As part of the Brentwood Borough School District, the school has seen fluctuations in its statewide ranking, going from a 3-star rating in 2023-2024 to a 2-star rating in 2024-2025.
Brentwood Middle School's academic performance is mixed, with math proficiency rates consistently below the district and state averages, while English Language Arts (ELA) proficiency is more varied, with 7th grade students outperforming their peers. The school's science proficiency for 8th grade, however, is above the district and state averages. Despite the school's relatively high spending per student and low student-teacher ratio, the high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch suggests the school serves a relatively low-income population, which may contribute to some of the academic challenges.
Overall, Brentwood Middle School faces some academic hurdles, particularly in math, but also has pockets of strong performance, such as in 7th grade ELA. The school's fluctuating statewide ranking and the need for targeted interventions and improvements in certain areas highlight the importance of continued monitoring and support to ensure the best possible educational outcomes for the students in this community.
