Albert Gallatin Area School District

Summary:

The Albert Gallatin Area School District in Pennsylvania operates 8 schools, including 5 elementary schools, 2 middle schools, and 1 high school. The district as a whole is ranked 401 out of 610 school districts in the state and is rated 2 out of 5 stars by SchoolDigger.

Within the district, a few schools stand out. Smithfield Elementary School consistently performs above the district and state averages on PSSA tests, with over 50% of students proficient or better in math, science, and English language arts. Albert Gallatin South Middle School also outperforms the district and state on PSSA tests, particularly in English language arts. Meanwhile, Friendship Hill Elementary School has strong PSSA performance, especially in English language arts.

The district faces some significant challenges, with all schools except the high school having 100% of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch. This suggests the schools serve a population with substantial socioeconomic challenges. Additionally, while some schools excel, others like A.L. Wilson Elementary and Masontown Elementary struggle, ranking in the bottom quarter of Pennsylvania elementary schools. The district could benefit from examining best practices and resource allocation to address these performance gaps.
