Summary:
The Morrisville Borough School District consists of three schools: Morrisville High School, Grandview Elementary School, and Morrisville Intermediate School. Unfortunately, the data shows that all three schools in the district are performing well below the state averages across a range of metrics, including test scores, graduation rates, and school rankings.
The proficiency rates for PSSA Math, Science, and English Language Arts tests are significantly lower than the state averages across all grade levels. For example, the Keystone Exam proficiency rates in Algebra I (0%), Biology (7.7%), and Literature (24.5%) are well below the state averages. Additionally, Morrisville High School has a 81.4% four-year graduation rate, which is lower than the state average, and a 1.7% dropout rate, which is higher than the state average.
Another significant challenge facing the district is the high poverty levels, with all three schools having 100% of their students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch. This high level of economic disadvantage can often be linked to lower academic achievement, and the district may need to focus on addressing the socioeconomic factors that are impacting student success. The racial makeup of the schools is also disproportionate, with higher percentages of African American and Hispanic students compared to the state averages, which could indicate issues with equity and access within the district.
