Best Public Schools in Cresco, PA


Summary:

The city of Cresco, Pennsylvania has only one public charter high school, Evergreen Community Charter School, which serves grades 6-12 with a total enrollment of 102 students. While the school has a diverse student population, its academic performance has been mixed, with some strengths in specific subject areas but overall below-average test scores compared to the state.

Evergreen Community Charter School boasts a strong 94.1% four-year graduation rate and a 0% dropout rate, which are both excellent. However, the school's performance on PSSA and Keystone Exams is generally below the state average, with the exception of 7th grade math and 8th grade science, where students outperform their peers statewide. The school's per-student spending of $16,040 is higher than the state average, and its student-teacher ratio of 8.5 is lower, suggesting a focus on smaller class sizes and potentially more resources per student.

Despite these investments, Evergreen Community Charter School's overall academic performance has declined in recent years, dropping from a statewide ranking of 229 out of 537 high schools in 2020-2021 to 496 out of 674 high schools in 2022-2023. This trend, coupled with the school's diverse student population, presents both opportunities and challenges for the Evergreen Community Charter School to improve student outcomes and better meet the needs of its community.
