Summary:
The 15323 zip code is home to a single high school, McGuffey High School, which serves students in grades 9-12. While the school's performance is generally below the state average, it reflects the broader challenges faced by the McGuffey School District.
McGuffey High School's four-year graduation rate of 87.9% is slightly below the state average, and its dropout rate of 1.4% is relatively low. However, the school's performance on the Keystone Exams has declined in recent years, with proficiency rates in Algebra I, Biology, and Literature falling below the state averages. This suggests the school may be facing challenges in maintaining academic achievement.
The school serves a population with significant economic challenges, with 41.42% of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch. Despite this, the school district spends $13,988 per student, which is slightly above the state average, and the student-teacher ratio of 12.4 to 1 is relatively low. These factors suggest the school may have adequate staffing and resources, but they have not translated into strong academic outcomes for all students.
