Duquesne City School District


Summary:

The Duquesne City School District in Pennsylvania has only one school, Duquesne Elementary School, which serves grades PK-8 and has a student population of 439. Despite its diverse student body, Duquesne Elementary School has consistently ranked in the bottom 10% of Pennsylvania elementary schools, with a 0-star rating and significantly below-average academic performance.

Duquesne Elementary School's proficiency rates in math and English Language Arts (ELA) range from 0% to 28.2%, compared to the state averages of 36.4% to 74.1%. The school also has a high dropout rate of 3.9% and a very low per-student spending of $69, which is significantly lower than the state average. These challenges are likely exacerbated by the fact that 100% of the school's students qualify for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating significant socioeconomic challenges within the community.

Despite the diverse student population at Duquesne Elementary School, the school has struggled to provide a high-quality education to its students. Addressing the academic, socioeconomic, and funding challenges faced by the school will likely require a comprehensive, multi-faceted approach to improve educational outcomes for the students in the Duquesne City School District.
