Summary:
The city of Ulysses, Pennsylvania is home to two schools - Northern Potter Children's School, an elementary school, and Northern Potter Junior/Senior High School. Both schools serve the Northern Potter School District, which appears to face significant challenges in providing quality education to its predominantly white, low-income student population.
While the schools spend more per student than the state average, their academic performance remains consistently below par. Both schools score lower than the state average on standardized tests, with the high school particularly struggling, with 0% proficiency in Algebra I. Graduation rates are also slightly below the state average, though dropout rates are relatively low. The high percentages of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, over 50% at both schools, suggest that the district serves a community with significant economic challenges.
Overall, the data indicates that the Northern Potter School District has work to do in order to improve student outcomes and provide a more equitable education for its students. The consistent underperformance, lack of diversity, and high poverty levels are all areas that the district should address to ensure that all students in Ulysses have access to a high-quality education.
