Best Public Schools in Throop, PA


Summary:

The city of Throop, Pennsylvania is home to two schools, Mid Valley Elementary Center and Mid Valley Secondary Center, both part of the Mid Valley School District. While the elementary school faces challenges with a high rate of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, the secondary school stands out as a stronger performer, earning a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger and ranking 291 out of 686 Pennsylvania high schools.

The Mid Valley Secondary Center boasts a robust 87.5% four-year graduation rate and a low 1.6% dropout rate. Additionally, the school outperforms the state and district averages in several areas, including PSSA English Language Arts, Keystone Exams in Algebra I, Biology, and Literature. In contrast, the elementary school lags behind the state averages in PSSA Math and English Language Arts, suggesting an opportunity for improvement.

Both schools maintain relatively low student-teacher ratios, with Mid Valley Elementary at 16.3 and Mid Valley Secondary at 14.4, and they also benefit from high per-student spending, at $13,923 and $15,017, respectively. These investments in resources and staffing indicate the district's commitment to supporting its students, though the academic performance at the elementary level could be an area for further exploration and enhancement.
