Best Public Schools in Milton, PA


Summary:

The city of Milton, Pennsylvania is home to three schools serving students from elementary through high school: Milton High School, James F Baugher Elementary School, and Milton Area Middle School. These schools are part of the Milton Area School District and serve a high-poverty student population.

Milton High School stands out with a 3-star rating, a relatively high 4-year graduation rate of 87.5%, and strong performance on Keystone Exams, particularly in Algebra I and Literature. In contrast, James F Baugher Elementary School excels in PSSA Science, with over 80% of students proficient or better, but has a lower 2-star rating. Milton Area Middle School has more mixed results on PSSA tests, with lower proficiency rates in Math and English Language Arts compared to the other schools.

Despite the varying academic performance, all three schools in the Milton Area School District serve a high-poverty student population, with free/reduced lunch rates ranging from 57% to over 99%. This suggests the district may face unique challenges in supporting its students. Additionally, the per-student spending and student-teacher ratios differ across the schools, with Milton Area Middle School spending the most per student and having the lowest student-teacher ratio. These factors, along with the declining statewide ranking of Milton High School, present opportunities for further analysis and targeted interventions to support student success across the district.
