Summary:
The city of Sharon, Pennsylvania is home to 5 schools that serve students from elementary through high school, all part of the Sharon City School District. While the district as a whole struggles, with a ranking of 433 out of 610 in Pennsylvania and a 1-out-of-5-star rating, a few schools stand out in the data.
Case Avenue Elementary School is the highest-performing school in the district, ranking 840 out of 1,526 Pennsylvania elementary schools. It boasts the best proficiency rates in PSSA Math, Science, and English Language Arts compared to the other elementary schools and the district average. Additionally, Sharon High School ranks 272 out of 686 Pennsylvania high schools, the highest in the district, and has the best Keystone Exams proficiency in Literature.
However, the majority of the district's schools, including the middle and high schools, perform below the state averages in various academic metrics. This could be due to the high poverty levels, as indicated by the free and reduced lunch rates ranging from 94.84% to 100% across the schools. While the district spends more per student than the state average, the data suggests significant challenges in providing quality education to its students, with the exception of the standout performance at Case Avenue Elementary.
