Best Elementary Schools in Zip Code 16947

The 16947 zip code area is home to two elementary schools, Troy Intrmd School and W R Croman Primary School, both part of the Troy Area School District. These schools face challenges, with consistently low rankings and ratings compared to other elementary schools in Pennsylvania.

Neither school stands out as an exceptional performer. Troy Intrmd School has proficiency rates in PSSA Math and English Language Arts that are generally below state averages, while W R Croman Primary School does not have test scores available as it only serves grades K-2. Both schools have high free and reduced lunch rates, indicating a significant population of economically disadvantaged students, which may contribute to their lower academic performance.

Despite relatively low student-teacher ratios, the schools have not shown significant improvement in their statewide rankings over the past three school years. To address these challenges, the Troy Area School District may need to implement targeted interventions, allocate resources more effectively, and address the underlying factors contributing to the schools' low rankings and ratings.
