Summary:
The 17046 zip code in Pennsylvania is home to a single middle school, Lebanon Middle School, which is part of the Lebanon School District. This school has consistently underperformed compared to state and district averages, with declining academic performance and a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.
Lebanon Middle School's academic proficiency rates in subjects like math and English language arts are significantly below state averages, with only 10.5% of students proficient or better in PSSA Math and 24.3% in PSSA English Language Arts, compared to state averages of 41.7% and 48.5%, respectively. The school's statewide ranking has also declined over the past three years, going from 714 out of 883 Pennsylvania middle schools in 2021-2022 to 728 out of 891 in 2023-2024.
Despite the school's high spending per student of $12,885 for the 2022-2023 school year and a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 14.3 to 1, the data suggests that Lebanon Middle School is struggling to provide its students with the support and resources they need to succeed academically. The school's challenges may be exacerbated by the high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, indicating that the school serves a socioeconomically disadvantaged population that requires additional support and resources.
