Summary:
The Hopewell Area School District in Pennsylvania has only one middle school, Hopewell Junior High School, which serves students in grades 6-8. This school has consistently ranked in the top 35% of Pennsylvania middle schools over the past three years, indicating a stable and well-performing institution.
Hopewell Junior High School's academic performance is mixed, with proficiency rates in Math (42.8%) and Science (53%) above the state averages, but its English Language Arts (ELA) proficiency rate (56.5%) slightly below the state average of 53%. Compared to the Hopewell Area School District, the school's Math and ELA proficiency rates are slightly lower, but its Science proficiency rate is significantly lower. The school has a relatively low dropout rate of 1.6% and a student-teacher ratio of 13.6, suggesting a supportive learning environment.
One notable factor is the school's high percentage of free and reduced-price lunch recipients at 39.39%, indicating a significant population of economically disadvantaged students. This socioeconomic factor may be an important consideration when analyzing the school's performance and identifying areas for improvement. The school district's relatively high spending per student of $18,249 suggests that the school has access to adequate resources and funding, which could contribute to its overall performance.
