Summary:

The 19131 zip code of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania is home to 4 high schools that serve a predominantly low-income student population. The standout school in this area is The Science Leadership Academy at Beeber, which has the highest statewide ranking and test scores among the schools in the data set. In contrast, the other schools, including Mastery Charter School - Shoemaker Campus, KIPP DuBois Charter School, and Overbrook High School, have significantly lower test scores and statewide rankings.

Despite the differences in academic performance, all four schools have similar four-year graduation rates of around 87.9% and dropout rates ranging from 1.4% to 1.4% for the 2023-2024 school year. This suggests that the schools are equally effective in supporting students' overall educational attainment and completion, even if their academic proficiency levels vary. The schools also serve a predominantly low-income student population, with free/reduced lunch rates ranging from 99.43% to 100%.

The differences in spending per student across the schools are noteworthy, with KIPP DuBois Charter School spending the most at $22,112 per student and The Science Leadership Academy at Beeber spending the least at $17,354 per student for the 2022-2023 school year. However, the data does not provide a clear correlation between spending and test scores, indicating that other factors, such as teaching quality, curriculum, and school leadership, may also play a significant role in student outcomes.
