Summary:
The city of Lilly, Pennsylvania is home to two elementary schools, Penn Cambria Intrmd School and Penn Cambria Primary School, both part of the Penn Cambria School District. While the schools share similarities, such as a predominantly white student population and above-average academic performance, there are some notable differences in their characteristics.
Penn Cambria Intrmd School has a slightly more diverse student body, with 1.42% African American and 0.47% Hispanic students, compared to Penn Cambria Primary School's 0.54% African American and 2.17% Hispanic enrollment. Academically, Penn Cambria Intrmd School outperforms its counterpart, with detailed data showing students scoring above district and state averages in PSSA Math, ELA, and Science. However, Penn Cambria Primary School lacks academic performance data, making a direct comparison difficult.
In terms of resources, Penn Cambria Primary School spends more per student ($14,877) than Penn Cambria Intrmd School ($13,046), despite the latter having a higher student-teacher ratio of 13.2, the highest in the district. This discrepancy in spending and staffing ratios may have implications for the quality of education and individual attention students receive. Overall, while both schools are part of the well-regarded Penn Cambria School District, the available data suggests some differences in their student demographics, academic performance, and resource allocation that parents may want to consider when choosing the right school for their child.
