Best Public Schools in Zip Code 16652

Summary:

The 16652 zip code area is home to 6 schools, including 3 elementary schools, 1 middle school, and 2 high schools, all part of the Huntingdon Area School District. While the district as a whole underperforms compared to the state average, a few standout schools in the area have shown consistent academic success.

Huntingdon Area Senior High School is a top performer, ranking in the top half of Pennsylvania high schools and exceeding state averages on Keystone Exams. The school also boasts an impressive 87.9% 4-year graduation rate and a low 1.4% dropout rate. At the elementary level, Standing Stone Elementary and Southside Elementary both perform above the district and state averages on PSSA Math and English Language Arts tests, particularly in 3rd grade.

In contrast, the area's charter schools, New Day Charter School and Stone Valley Community Charter School, struggle academically, with low proficiency rates on standardized tests. The wide range in per-student spending, from $12,449 to $20,168, and student-teacher ratios, from 7.9 to 13.1 students per teacher, may contribute to the performance differences across the district.
