Octorara Area School District


Summary:

The Octorara Area School District in Pennsylvania consists of 4 schools, including 2 elementary schools, 1 middle school, and 1 high school. The data reveals a mixed picture, with the elementary and middle schools generally performing better academically than the high school.

Octorara Primary LC and Octorara Elementary School stand out as the strongest performers, with higher proficiency rates than the district and state averages in PSSA Math, Science, and English Language Arts. Octorara Intermediate School also outperforms the district and state in PSSA English Language Arts for 5th and 6th grades.

In contrast, Octorara Area Junior/Senior High School struggles academically, with proficiency rates below the district and state averages in PSSA and Keystone Exams. This trend is concerning and suggests the need for targeted interventions to improve academic outcomes at the high school level. The high rates of economic disadvantage among the student population across all schools may be a contributing factor to the academic challenges faced by the district.
