Summary:
The Lebanon Senior High School is the sole high school serving the Lebanon School District in Pennsylvania. The school has faced declining performance in recent years, ranking 613 out of 686 Pennsylvania high schools in the 2023-2024 school year with a 1-star rating. Despite the district's high spending of $13,114 per student, Lebanon Senior High School's academic outcomes remain significantly below state averages, with proficiency rates on the Keystone Exams ranging from just 12.8% in Algebra I to 31.9% in Literature, compared to state averages of 41.6% and 63.2%, respectively.
The school's four-year graduation rate stands at 87.5%, while its dropout rate is 1.6%. However, the school serves a predominantly low-income population, with 86.09% of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch. This high poverty level may contribute to the academic challenges faced by the school, as evidenced by its declining statewide ranking and low test scores.
Overall, the data suggests that the Lebanon Senior High School is struggling to provide a high-quality education to its students, despite the district's investment in resources. The school's leadership and the Lebanon School District may need to implement targeted interventions and strategies to address the academic performance issues and improve outcomes for the students they serve.
