Best Elementary Schools in Zip Code 17540

Summary:

The 17540 zip code is home to a single elementary school, Leola Elementary School, which serves students in grades K-5. While the school has a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 9.3, its academic performance on PSSA tests consistently falls below the Conestoga Valley School District and Pennsylvania state averages in both math and English language arts.

Leola Elementary School's proficiency rates on PSSA tests were below the district and state averages in the 2023-2024 and 2024-2025 school years. Additionally, the school has a high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, at 65.11% in the 2023-2024 school year, suggesting a lower socioeconomic status of the student population. Despite the school's relatively high spending per student of $20,281, these factors do not appear to be translating into improved academic outcomes.

While the small size and low student-teacher ratio of Leola Elementary School could be an advantage, the data indicates that the school is underperforming compared to the district and state averages. Further investigation into the school's practices, resources, and support for students from low-income backgrounds may provide insights into how to improve the school's academic performance and better serve the needs of the local community.
