Summary:
The Glendale School District in Pennsylvania operates two schools: Glendale Junior/Senior High School and Glendale Elementary School. The district is ranked 169 out of 610 districts in the state and is rated 4 out of 5 stars by SchoolDigger, indicating it is performing well compared to other districts.
Glendale Elementary School stands out for its consistently high test scores, with the majority of grades performing above the state and district averages in PSSA Math, Science, and English Language Arts. This is particularly notable in 3rd grade Math, where 81.8% of students scored proficient or better, compared to 51.4% statewide. In contrast, Glendale Junior/Senior High School has mixed results, with some strong performances, such as 73.3% proficient or better in Keystone Exams/Literature, but also areas for improvement, like 21.4% proficient or better in PSSA/Math for 8th grade.
Both schools serve a predominantly economically disadvantaged population, with 100% of students at Glendale Elementary School and 90.59% at Glendale Junior/Senior High School receiving free or reduced-price lunch. This suggests the district may need to examine resource allocation, support services, and strategies to address the unique needs of its student population and ensure equitable educational outcomes across all grade levels.
