Summary:

The 19136 zip code of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania is home to three elementary schools: Northeast Community Propel Academy, Forrest Edwin School, and Brown Joseph School. These schools serve students from pre-kindergarten through 8th grade and are part of the Philadelphia City School District.

Among the three schools, Brown Joseph School stands out with the lowest student-teacher ratio and the highest proficiency rates in English Language Arts, particularly in 8th grade where it exceeds the district and state averages. Forrest Edwin School has the highest per-student spending and the strongest performance in 4th grade Science, outpacing the district and state.

However, all three schools face significant challenges, with math proficiency rates well below the district and state averages, especially in the upper grades. Additionally, the schools have high dropout rates and low statewide rankings, indicating the need for targeted interventions and resources to support the high-poverty student populations in this area.
