Blue Ridge School District


Summary:

The Blue Ridge School District in Pennsylvania operates three schools: Blue Ridge Elementary School, Blue Ridge High School, and Blue Ridge Middle School. The district serves a predominantly white, low-income student population, with high rates of free and reduced lunch recipients across all three schools.

Blue Ridge Elementary School stands out for its strong performance in PSSA Science exams, with 81% of 4th graders proficient or better, significantly higher than the state average. However, the middle and high schools in the district generally perform below state averages in PSSA/Keystone Math and ELA. Blue Ridge High School has a relatively high graduation rate of 86.1%, though still slightly below the state average, and the district as a whole maintains low dropout rates.

Despite the challenges faced by the low-income student population, the Blue Ridge School District invests significant resources into its education system, with per-student spending ranging from $17,356 to $19,130 across the three schools. The district's focus on addressing the needs of its predominantly white, low-income student body will be crucial in improving overall academic outcomes and ensuring the success of all students in the Blue Ridge School District.
