Best Public Schools in Mount Penn, PA


Summary:

The school is part of the Antietam School District and has a diverse student population, with over 50% of students identifying as Hispanic.

While the school spends a significant amount per student ($21,174), its academic performance on standardized tests lags behind state averages.

The school's science proficiency rate of 65.1% in grade 4 is also below the state average of 74.1%. These underperformance issues may be linked to the school's high poverty levels, with 100% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch.

Despite the school's small class sizes, with a student-teacher ratio of 9.9, the academic challenges persist. This suggests that additional support and targeted interventions may be necessary to address the needs of the economically disadvantaged student population and improve overall academic outcomes at Mt Penn Elementary School.
