Summary:
The city of Matamoras, Pennsylvania is home to a single elementary school, Delaware Valley Elementary School, which serves students from grades K-5. The school is part of the Delaware Valley School District, which is ranked 128 out of 606 school districts in Pennsylvania and has a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger.
Delaware Valley Elementary School stands out for its strong academic performance, with students scoring above the state average in both Math and English Language Arts across grades 3-5. The school's science proficiency rate is also significantly higher than the state average, indicating a well-rounded curriculum. While the school serves a diverse student population, with 20.79% of students identifying as non-white, it also has a relatively high rate of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch at 43.54%, suggesting a significant population of economically disadvantaged students.
The school's spending per student of $19,228 is relatively high, which may contribute to its academic performance. However, the student-teacher ratio of 13:1 is not the best in the district, suggesting that there may be room for improvement in resource allocation. Additionally, the school's statewide ranking has declined slightly over the past three years, from 520 out of 1,433 Pennsylvania elementary schools in 2020-2021 to 629 out of 1,534 in 2022-2023, indicating that the school's performance may be declining relative to other schools in the state.
