Summary:

The 19018 zip code area in Pennsylvania is home to three elementary schools: Westbrook Park Elementary School, Primos Elementary School, and Aldan Elementary School. These schools serve students from pre-kindergarten through 6th grade and face significant challenges, including consistently low academic performance and high-poverty student populations.

Among the three schools, Primos Elementary School stands out as the strongest performer, with the highest overall proficiency rates in both Math and English Language Arts across all grades. In 2024-2025, Primos had 36.6% of students proficient or better in Math and 33.7% proficient or better in English Language Arts, outperforming the district and state averages. Aldan Elementary School also had notable strengths, with the highest 3rd grade proficiency rates in both Math (46.6%) and English Language Arts (40%) in 2024-2025, as well as the highest 6th grade English Language Arts proficiency rate at 36.8%.

However, all three schools performed below the state averages in both Math and English Language Arts proficiency across most grade levels, and the proficiency rates tended to decline as students progressed from 3rd to 5th/6th grade. Additionally, all three schools had 100% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a high-poverty student population. The per-student spending ranged from $15,367 at Westbrook Park Elementary School to $20,780 at Aldan Elementary School, with Primos Elementary School in the middle at $18,292, suggesting potential funding disparities between the schools or districts.
