Summary:
The Hazle Township area of Pennsylvania is home to 3 schools - 1 high school, 1 middle school, and 1 elementary school - all part of the Hazleton Area School District. Unfortunately, the data suggests these schools are underperforming compared to state averages, with low test scores, high poverty rates, and a low district ranking.
The Hazleton Area High School has a 87.5% four-year graduation rate and a 1.6% dropout rate, but its students perform significantly below the state average on Keystone Exams. Similarly, Maple Manor El/Middle School students perform well below state averages on PSSA exams. Both the middle school and Hazle Township Early Learning Center have 100% of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a high-poverty student population.
The wide variation in per-student spending across the schools, from $15,931 at the elementary level to $9,642 at the middle school, is an interesting dynamic that may warrant further investigation. Additionally, the consistent 1-star rating for the Hazleton Area School District across all three schools highlights the need for systemic improvements and interventions to raise the overall quality of education in the area.
