Summary:
The Lebanon School District in Pennsylvania has only one middle school, Lebanon Middle School, which serves students in grades 6-8. The school has consistently performed poorly, ranking in the bottom third of Pennsylvania middle schools over the past three years and earning a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.
Lebanon Middle School's academic performance is significantly below the district and state averages in Math, English Language Arts, and Science, with only 8.7% of students proficient or better on the PSSA exams compared to 15% in the district and 40.4% statewide. The school also has a high dropout rate of 1.6% and serves a population where 100% of students are eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a high level of economic disadvantage.
Despite the district spending $11,291 per student, the school's performance remains poor, raising questions about how resources are being allocated to support student learning. The consistently low rankings, achievement gaps, and high poverty levels suggest that Lebanon Middle School is struggling to provide its students with the same educational opportunities as their peers across Pennsylvania.
