Summary:
The city of McAdoo, Pennsylvania has only one school serving students from kindergarten through 8th grade - the McAdoo-Kelayres El/Middle School, which is part of the Hazleton Area School District. While the school has a diverse student population, it struggles academically, with proficiency rates in math, science, and English language arts significantly lower than district and state averages.
Economically, the school faces significant challenges, with 100% of its students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch. Despite higher-than-average per-student spending, the school's academic performance remains poor, raising questions about the effective allocation and utilization of resources. The school's dropout rate, however, is an impressive 0.0%, indicating strong student retention.
Without additional schools in the data set, it is difficult to make meaningful comparisons and identify truly standout schools in the area. The analysis is limited to the performance of the single school in McAdoo, but the data reveals a school facing significant academic and socioeconomic challenges that will require targeted interventions and support to improve student outcomes.
