Summary:
The 19363 zip code area is home to 6 schools, including 3 elementary schools, 2 middle schools, and 1 high school, all part of the Oxford Area School District. This high-poverty area presents unique challenges, as evidenced by the extremely high free/reduced lunch rates across all schools, ranging from 100% to 100.64%.
Among the standout schools in the area is Oxford Area High School, which boasts a strong 4-year graduation rate of 87.9% and a low dropout rate of 1.4%. However, its Keystone Exam proficiency rates are slightly below the state average, particularly in Algebra I. Hopewell Elementary School and Nottingham School also stand out, with the former demonstrating impressive PSSA Math and English Language Arts proficiency, and the latter excelling in PSSA Science.
The data also reveals significant variation in academic performance across the schools, with Penn's Grove School lagging behind the district and state averages on PSSA Math proficiency. This suggests potential opportunities for the district to learn from its higher-performing schools and implement best practices to support its most vulnerable students and underperforming schools.
