Summary:
The Burrell School District in Pennsylvania consists of 4 schools, including 2 elementary schools, 1 middle school, and 1 high school, serving students from the surrounding area. The data reveals a mix of strengths and areas for improvement across the district's schools.
Burrell High School stands out with a high 4-year graduation rate of 95.7% and a low dropout rate of 1.0%, while also outperforming the state average on Keystone Exam proficiency in Literature. In contrast, the middle school, Charles A Huston Middle School, struggles to meet state proficiency standards, particularly in Math. The elementary schools show more promising results, with Bon Air Elementary significantly outperforming the state on 3rd grade PSSA Math and ELA assessments.
Across the district, the student population is relatively homogeneous, with a majority white demographic and limited racial diversity. Additionally, there are disparities in per-student spending, ranging from $13,950 at Bon Air Elementary to $17,824 at Burrell High School. These findings suggest the need for the district to closely examine curriculum, instructional practices, and resource allocation to ensure a more consistent and equitable educational experience for all students within the Burrell School District.
