Huntingdon Area School District

The Huntingdon Area School District in Pennsylvania consists of 4 schools: 2 elementary schools, 1 middle school, and 1 high school. The district's schools show varying levels of academic performance, with some schools like Standing Stone Elementary outperforming the district and state averages, while others like Southside Elementary have lower test scores, particularly in Math.

Huntingdon Area Senior High School stands out as the district's top performer, ranking 329 out of 686 Pennsylvania high schools and earning a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger. The high school has a relatively high 4-year graduation rate of 87.5% and a low dropout rate of 1.6%. Additionally, the school performs above the state average on Keystone Exams, particularly in Literature.

The data suggests a potential correlation between the socioeconomic status of students, as measured by the percentage receiving free or reduced-price lunch, and academic performance. Schools with higher percentages of these students, such as Standing Stone and Southside Elementary, tend to have lower test scores. The district may want to focus on improving instruction and support, especially in Math, at the lower-performing schools to ensure all students have access to a quality education.
