Summary:

The 15955 zip code is home to a single high school, Forest Hills Junior/Senior High School, which serves students in grades 7-12. The school's performance is mixed, with strengths in certain subject areas but room for improvement in others.

Forest Hills Junior/Senior High School has a relatively high four-year graduation rate of 87.9%, but its dropout rate of 1.4% is still worth monitoring. The school's performance on standardized tests is varied, with students exceeding the state average in ELA and Biology but falling short in Math and Literature. The school's high free/reduced lunch rate of over 100% suggests a significant level of economic disadvantage among the student population, which may be a factor in the school's academic challenges.

Despite these areas for improvement, Forest Hills Junior/Senior High School also has some positive attributes, such as a small student-teacher ratio of 14:1 and relatively high spending per student of $16,774. The Forest Hills School District should continue to evaluate and address the school's performance gaps to ensure all students have the support they need to succeed.
