Summary:
The city of Weatherly, Pennsylvania is home to three schools that serve students from elementary through high school: Weatherly Area Elementary School, Weatherly Area Senior High School, and Weatherly Area Middle School. These schools are part of the Weatherly Area School District, which serves the local community.
Among the three schools, Weatherly Area Elementary School stands out as a high performer, with students scoring above the state average on PSSA tests in Math, English Language Arts, and Science. The school is ranked in the top 41% of Pennsylvania elementary schools, demonstrating its academic excellence. In contrast, the Weatherly Area Senior High School and Weatherly Area Middle School face some academic challenges, though the high school maintains a strong 88.1% four-year graduation rate, well above the state average.
The Weatherly area schools also face socioeconomic challenges, with high rates of free and reduced-price lunch recipients across all three institutions. This suggests that the community may benefit from additional resources and support to address these disparities. Additionally, the significant difference in per-student spending between the elementary/middle schools and the high school may contribute to the observed performance differences, and warrants further investigation by the Weatherly Area School District.
