Best Public Schools in Sayre, PA


Summary:

The city of Sayre, Pennsylvania is home to two schools - Snyder Elementary School and Sayre Area High School, both of which serve the Sayre Area School District. While the schools share some similarities, such as higher per-student spending and relatively low student-teacher ratios, they face significant challenges in academic performance compared to state averages.

Snyder Elementary School has consistently ranked in the bottom 30% of Pennsylvania elementary schools over the past three years, with a 1-2 star rating from SchoolDigger. The school struggles with proficiency rates in Math (27.3% vs. 40.4% state average) and English Language Arts (40.9% vs. 53% state average), but performs better in Science (77.6% vs. 65.8% state average). Sayre Area High School faces similar challenges, ranking in the bottom 30% of Pennsylvania high schools and having lower proficiency rates than the state average in Math, Science, and Literature.

Both schools serve a predominantly low-income student population, with free/reduced lunch rates of 100% at Snyder Elementary School and 92.64% at Sayre Area High School. Despite the higher per-student spending and relatively low student-teacher ratios, the schools have struggled to translate these resources into improved academic outcomes. This suggests a need for a comprehensive review of the educational strategies, curriculum, and support systems in place to identify areas for improvement and implement targeted interventions to better serve the students in the Sayre community.
