Summary:
The city of Farmington, Pennsylvania has only one school, Wharton School, which serves grades K-5 with a total enrollment of 165 students. Wharton School is part of the Uniontown Area School District, which is ranked 378 out of 610 school districts in Pennsylvania and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.
Wharton School appears to be performing relatively well academically compared to its district and state counterparts. The school's PSSA test scores are generally higher than the district and state averages in most subject areas and grade levels, particularly in science and English language arts. In the 2023-2024 school year, Wharton School's proficiency rates were 40.5% in math, 70% in science, and 56.7% in English language arts, outpacing the district and state averages.
Despite serving a predominantly economically disadvantaged student population, with 80.61% of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, Wharton School has access to significant resources, as evidenced by its high per-student spending of $18,184 and low student-teacher ratio of 15.4. These factors may contribute to the school's academic performance, which appears to be an outlier within the broader challenges faced by the Uniontown Area School District.
