Summary:
The city of Corry, Pennsylvania is home to 4 schools serving students from elementary through high school, all part of the Corry Area School District. While the district faces challenges with overall academic performance, one school stands out as a consistent high performer - Corry Area Intrmd School. This elementary school boasts the highest proficiency rates in PSSA Math, Science, and English Language Arts across all grades compared to the other schools in the district.
At the middle school level, Corry Area Middle School has consistently ranked in the top 50% of Pennsylvania middle schools over the past 3 years, with strong performance in PSSA Science and Math. However, the district's high school, Corry Area High School, has struggled, ranking in the bottom half of Pennsylvania high schools with Keystone Exam proficiency rates below the state averages.
A notable challenge facing the Corry Area School District is the high level of economic disadvantage, with all four schools having 100% of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch. This may be a contributing factor to the district's overall academic performance, which is generally below the state averages. However, the district's investment in small class sizes, with student-teacher ratios ranging from 10.2 to 12.0, could be a valuable asset in addressing these challenges and improving outcomes for students.
