Summary:
The city of Millville, Pennsylvania is home to two schools - Millville Area Elementary School and Millville Area Junior/Senior High School, both part of the Millville Area School District. The elementary school consistently performs well on PSSA tests, particularly in Science and English Language Arts, while the junior/senior high school has more variable performance, excelling in English Language Arts but struggling in Math and Science.
The elementary school stands out for its high PSSA Science scores, with over 84% of students scoring proficient or better, as well as strong performance in English Language Arts. In contrast, the junior/senior high school has achieved a 5-star rating from SchoolDigger and boasts an impressive 87.5% four-year graduation rate. However, the high school lags behind the state average on Keystone Exams in Algebra I and Biology.
Across both schools, there are notable differences in resource allocation, with the junior/senior high school spending more per student and having a lower student-teacher ratio compared to the elementary school. This may suggest a focus on providing more individualized attention at the secondary level. Additionally, the higher free/reduced lunch rate at the elementary school indicates a greater proportion of students from lower-income families, which could be an important factor in understanding the school's performance and resource needs.
