Best Public Schools in Prospect Park, PA


Summary:

The city of Prospect Park, Pennsylvania is home to 3 schools, including 2 elementary schools and 1 high school, all part of the Interboro School District. The data reveals a mix of strengths and areas for improvement across these schools.

Interboro Senior High School has seen a significant decline in its statewide ranking, dropping from 61st in 2020-2021 to 366th in 2022-2023, despite maintaining a relatively high 4-year graduation rate of 92.4% and a low dropout rate of 1.1%. However, the school's performance on Keystone Exams is below the state average. In contrast, the two elementary schools, Prospect Park School and Kindergarten Academy, have more varied academic performance, with Prospect Park School's PSSA proficiency rates generally lower than the state and district averages, while Kindergarten Academy serves only kindergarten students and has a relatively low student-teacher ratio.

A common challenge across all three schools is the high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 54.77% at Interboro Senior High to 62.14% at Prospect Park School. This socioeconomic factor may contribute to the academic performance of the schools and should be considered in any improvement efforts. Additionally, the variation in student-teacher ratios, with Kindergarten Academy having the lowest ratio and Prospect Park School having the highest, may be an important factor in understanding the schools' performance and resource allocation.
