Summary:
The 17314 zip code area is home to a single elementary school, Delta-Peach Bottom Elementary School, which serves students in the South Eastern School District. While the school has consistently ranked in the lower half of Pennsylvania elementary schools, its academic performance has been mixed, with strengths in Science but weaknesses in English Language Arts.
Delta-Peach Bottom Elementary School's proficiency rates on PSSA tests have been variable, with Math scores above the state average but English Language Arts scores significantly below. The school's Science proficiency rates have been higher than the state average, but its overall academic performance has been inconsistent. The school serves a relatively high proportion of students from low-income families, with 43.37% of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch in 2023-2024.
Despite the school's challenges, it has access to more resources than the state average, with a higher per-student spending of $20,679 in 2022-2023 and a lower student-teacher ratio of 11.4. However, these additional resources have not yet translated to consistently strong academic outcomes, suggesting a need for targeted interventions and support to address the unique needs of the school's student population.
