Big Beaver Falls Area School District


Summary:

The Big Beaver Falls Area School District consists of 4 schools: 2 elementary schools, 1 middle school, and 1 high school. The data reveals that Big Beaver Elementary School stands out as the strongest performer in the district, consistently outperforming the district and state averages in PSSA Math, Science, and English Language Arts proficiency. In contrast, Beaver Falls Area Senior High School appears to be the weakest performer, with low Keystone Exam proficiency rates and a high dropout rate.

The district as a whole struggles with academic performance, with all schools performing below the state averages in PSSA and Keystone Exam proficiency. This trend is likely influenced by the high rates of economically disadvantaged students across the district, ranging from 88.91% at the high school to 100% at the elementary and middle schools. Despite the high per-student spending at the high school level, the data suggests that this additional funding does not necessarily translate to better academic outcomes.

Overall, the analysis of the Big Beaver Falls Area School District data provides valuable insights for targeted interventions and resource allocation to improve student outcomes across the district. While Big Beaver Elementary School stands out as a bright spot, the district-wide challenges, particularly at the high school level, indicate the need for a comprehensive approach to address the educational needs of the community.
