Summary:
The city of Douglassville, Pennsylvania is home to two schools serving grades K-8: Daniel Boone Area Middle School and Daniel Boone Area Intermediate Center, both part of the Daniel Boone Area School District. Based on the available data, the Intermediate Center stands out as the higher-performing school, consistently ranking higher in statewide assessments and demonstrating stronger academic achievement across multiple subject areas.
The Intermediate Center has seen steady improvement in its statewide ranking, moving from a 2-star rating in 2021-2022 to a 3-star rating in the current school year. Its students have significantly outperformed the district and state averages in PSSA Math, Science, and English Language Arts proficiency rates. In contrast, the Middle School has shown more mixed results, with some grade levels exceeding the district and state averages, while others fall below.
Both schools have relatively high free and reduced lunch rates, indicating a significant population of economically disadvantaged students. The spending per student is also relatively high for both schools, suggesting a commitment to investing in education. The student-teacher ratios are within a reasonable range, with the Middle School having a slightly lower ratio than the Intermediate Center, which may contribute to its stronger performance in certain areas.
