Summary:
The Greenville Area School District in Pennsylvania operates two schools: Greenville Junior/Senior High School and Greenville Elementary School. While the elementary school consistently outperforms district and state averages on standardized tests, the high school has seen a decline in its statewide ranking and lags behind in several key metrics.
Greenville Elementary School stands out with significantly higher test scores, particularly in PSSA Math and Science, where 89% of students were proficient or better in 2023-2024, compared to 73% for the district and 65.8% for the state. In contrast, Greenville Junior/Senior High School has lower test scores than the district and state averages, with several Keystone Exam metrics falling below the state average.
The high school has also seen a decline in its statewide ranking, dropping from 298th out of 634 Pennsylvania high schools in 2021-2022 to 456th out of 686 in 2023-2024. While both schools have similar spending per student, the higher free and reduced lunch rate at the elementary school (58.56%) compared to the high school (50.38%) may suggest socioeconomic challenges that could be impacting student performance. Addressing these disparities and identifying strategies to support all students in the Greenville Area School District will be crucial for improving overall educational outcomes.
