Lake-Lehman School District

The Lake-Lehman School District in Pennsylvania operates 4 schools, including 3 elementary schools and 1 junior/senior high school. The district serves a relatively homogeneous student population, with white students comprising 92-95% of enrollment. While the schools generally perform at a consistent 3-star level, a few standout institutions emerge based on their academic achievements and support for economically disadvantaged students.

Lake-Noxen Elementary School stands out for its small class sizes, with the lowest student-teacher ratio of 9.8 among the elementary schools. It also outperforms the district and state averages in several PSSA test subjects, including 82.1% proficiency in 3rd grade math and 84.4% proficiency in 4th grade science. However, Lake-Noxen has the highest free/reduced lunch rate at 45.19%, suggesting a higher proportion of economically disadvantaged students. Similarly, Ross Elementary School excels in PSSA English Language Arts, with 89.5% proficiency in 3rd grade, significantly higher than the district and state averages.

At the high school level, Lake-Lehman Junior/Senior High School stands out for its exceptional 4-year graduation rate of 97.7% and low dropout rate of 0.2%. However, the high school lags behind the state averages in Keystone Exam proficiency, particularly in Algebra I (28.2% vs. 34.1% statewide), indicating an area for potential improvement. Overall, the Lake-Lehman School District appears to provide a consistent level of education, with its elementary schools outperforming the high school in academic achievement.
