Summary:
The Jamestown Area School District has one elementary school, Jamestown Elementary School, which serves grades K-6 and has a total enrollment of 176 students. The school's academic performance is generally above the district and state averages in math, science, and English language arts, with particularly strong results in PSSA Science. However, the school's statewide ranking and rating have fluctuated in recent years, suggesting variable performance over time.
Jamestown Elementary School faces significant challenges, with an extremely high percentage of students (99.43%) eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a high concentration of economic disadvantage. Despite these challenges, the school appears to be allocating resources effectively, as evidenced by its relatively low student-teacher ratio of 9.2 to 1. This suggests the school may be providing more individualized attention to its students.
Overall, Jamestown Area School District's sole elementary school, Jamestown Elementary School, demonstrates strengths in academic performance, particularly in science, but also faces significant challenges related to the high poverty concentration of its student population. The school's fluctuating ranking and rating indicate the need for further investigation into the factors driving its performance over time.
