Best Public Schools in Aldan, PA


Summary:

The city of Aldan, Pennsylvania has only one public elementary school, Aldan Elementary School, which serves grades K-6 and is part of the William Penn School District. This school has consistently ranked in the bottom half of Pennsylvania elementary schools over the past three years and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger, indicating below-average performance.

Aldan Elementary School's proficiency rates in PSSA tests are significantly lower than the state averages across all grade levels and subject areas, with only 17.6% of students proficient in Math compared to the state average of 40.4%. The school also performs below the district's average proficiency rates in most cases. This persistent struggle with academic achievement is likely exacerbated by the school's high poverty level, with 100% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch.

Despite the high per-student spending of $18,607, Aldan Elementary School's academic performance remains below average, suggesting that simply increasing funding may not be the sole solution to improving student outcomes.
