Summary:
The 19094 zip code in Pennsylvania is home to a single elementary school, Woodlyn Elementary School, which serves students from kindergarten through 5th grade. While the school has a diverse student population, its academic performance on standardized tests lags behind both the Ridley School District and the state of Pennsylvania averages.
Woodlyn Elementary School's PSSA (Pennsylvania System of School Assessment) proficiency rates in math, science, and English language arts are consistently lower than the district and state averages across all grade levels. Additionally, the school's overall statewide ranking has declined over the past three years, dropping from the bottom quarter of Pennsylvania elementary schools to the bottom third. This trend suggests that the school is facing challenges in effectively serving its diverse student population, which includes a high percentage of economically disadvantaged students receiving free or reduced-price lunch.
Despite the school's academic struggles, it does have some positive attributes, such as a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 11:1 and higher-than-average district spending per student. However, these resources do not appear to be translating into improved academic outcomes for the students at Woodlyn Elementary School. Further investigation into the school's resource allocation and equity-focused strategies may be necessary to address the persistent performance gaps and help the school better support the learning needs of all its students.
