Best Public Schools in Zip Code 19405


Summary:

The 19405 zip code is home to a single elementary school, Bridgeport Elementary School, which serves students from kindergarten to 4th grade and is part of the Upper Merion Area School District. While the school's performance on standardized tests is mixed, with some areas of strength and others of weakness, it serves a predominantly low-income student population and maintains a relatively low student-teacher ratio.

Bridgeport Elementary School has consistently been ranked in the middle range of Pennsylvania elementary schools, with a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger. The school's proficiency rates in PSSA Math and English Language Arts (ELA) tests are generally lower than the district and state averages, with some exceptions. In 2024-2025, the school's Math proficiency rate for all grades (57.2%) was higher than the district (48.6%) and state (41.7%) averages, and its 4th-grade Math proficiency rate (61.4%) was on par with the district average (61.3%) and higher than the state average (50.6%). Additionally, the school's Science proficiency rates for all grades and 4th grade in 2023-2024 were higher than the district and state averages.

The school's high percentage of students (91.7%) receiving free or reduced-price lunch indicates a relatively low-income student population, which may contribute to the school's overall academic performance. However, the school's relatively low student-teacher ratio of 9.9 to 1 is generally considered favorable for student learning. Additionally, the school's per-student spending for the 2022-2023 school year was $31,876, which is significantly higher than the state average, suggesting that the school is allocating significant resources to maintain this low ratio and potentially support other areas of the school's operations.
