Summary:
The Corry Area School District in Pennsylvania has one middle school, Corry Area Middle School, which serves grades 6-8. While the school has a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger, its statewide ranking has fluctuated between 293 and 429 out of 891 Pennsylvania middle schools over the past few years, indicating it is not among the top-performing schools in the state.
Corry Area Middle School has a relatively low dropout rate of 1.6%, but its academic performance is mixed. The school's math proficiency rates are below the state average, ranging from 19.8% to 47.1% across different grade levels. However, its science proficiency rates are above the state average, ranging from 56% to 68.4%. The school's English Language Arts (ELA) proficiency rates are slightly below the state average, ranging from 47.6% to 48.9%.
The school serves a population with significant economic disadvantages, as indicated by the high percentage (100%) of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch. Despite the high spending per student at $16,758, the school's academic performance remains below the state average, suggesting a need to evaluate the effectiveness of resource utilization. The school's low student-teacher ratio of 10.2 to 1 is a positive factor, but the inconsistent performance over the years indicates a need for the district to address the academic gaps, particularly in math and ELA, to improve the overall quality of education for the students.
