Newport School District


Summary:

The Newport School District in Pennsylvania consists of three schools: Newport Elementary School, Newport High School, and Newport Middle School. The district serves a predominantly white student population, with some diversity at the high school level. While Newport Middle School outperforms the district and state averages in academic proficiency, Newport Elementary School and Newport High School struggle to meet state standards, particularly in Math.

Newport Middle School stands out as the highest-performing school in the district, ranking 429 out of 893 Pennsylvania middle schools and maintaining a 0% dropout rate. In contrast, Newport Elementary School and Newport High School have been declining in their statewide rankings over the past few years. The district also faces significant economic challenges, with high free and reduced lunch rates, particularly at the elementary and middle school levels.

The data suggests an imbalance in resource allocation within the Newport School District, with Newport Middle School receiving the highest per-student spending. This disparity may be a contributing factor to the academic performance gaps observed across the district. The district leadership should closely examine these factors and implement targeted strategies to address the challenges faced by the lower-performing schools and ensure equitable access to resources for all students.
