Best Public Schools in Freeland, PA


Summary:

The city of Freeland, Pennsylvania has only one school serving students from kindergarten through 8th grade - the Freeland El/Middle School, which is part of the Hazleton Area School District. This combined elementary and middle school faces challenges in serving its diverse, predominantly minority and economically disadvantaged student population, as evidenced by its below-average academic performance on standardized tests compared to state and district averages.

While the school spends above the state average per student and has a relatively low student-teacher ratio, its academic results do not seem to reflect these resource investments. Only 13.9% of 3rd graders scored proficient or better in math, and English Language Arts performance is mixed, with some grade levels scoring above the district average but below the state average. However, the school's science scores are relatively stronger, with 69.4% of 4th graders and 35.9% of 8th graders scoring proficient or better.

With 100% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, the school faces significant challenges in addressing equity and achievement gaps to ensure all students have access to a quality education. Further analysis and targeted interventions may be necessary to improve educational outcomes for the students of Freeland El/Middle School and the broader Hazleton Area School District.
