Summary:
The Wellsboro, Pennsylvania area is home to 4 schools, including 2 elementary schools, 1 middle school, and 1 high school, all part of the Wellsboro Area School District. The data reveals a mix of high-performing and average-performing schools, with Rock L Butler Middle School standing out as the top-ranked school in the district, consistently ranking among the best middle schools in Pennsylvania. In contrast, Wellsboro Area High School has room for improvement, with below-average performance on Keystone Exams compared to the state.
The schools in Wellsboro serve a predominantly white student population, with free/reduced lunch rates ranging from 45.1% to 55.35%, indicating a significant portion of economically disadvantaged students. While the district generally outperforms the state on standardized tests, there is some variation in performance between the elementary schools, with Don Gill Elementary showing stronger results than Charlotte Lappla Elementary. The high rates of economically disadvantaged students may present challenges for the schools in providing additional support and resources to these students.
Overall, the Wellsboro Area School District has some high-performing schools, particularly at the middle school level, but also faces opportunities for improvement, especially at the high school level. Addressing the needs of the economically disadvantaged student population and ensuring consistent quality across all schools in the district could be areas of focus for the district's leadership.
