Summary:
The Lampeter-Strasburg School District in Pennsylvania is home to two elementary schools: Hans Herr Elementary School and Lampeter Elementary School. Based on the available data, Hans Herr Elementary School stands out as the high-performing school in the district, consistently ranking in the top 20% of Pennsylvania elementary schools and significantly outperforming the district and state averages on standardized tests.
Hans Herr Elementary School has consistently ranked in the top 20% of Pennsylvania elementary schools over the past three school years, with rankings of 307, 355, and 312 out of 1,526, 1,534, and 1,534 schools, respectively. The school's test scores in Math, Science, and English Language Arts are significantly higher than the district and state averages across all grade levels. For example, in the 2023-2024 school year, the school's proficiency rates were 63.8%, 90.7%, and 70.3%, respectively, compared to the district averages of 58.1%, 81.4%, and 66.2%, and the state averages of 40.4%, 65.8%, and 53%.
In contrast, the data set does not provide comprehensive information about Lampeter Elementary School, making it difficult to conduct a thorough comparative analysis. The similar free and reduced lunch rates between the two schools suggest that they serve a relatively similar socioeconomic population, but the significant difference in academic performance raises questions about equity and the factors that may be contributing to the disparity.
