Summary:
The Pottsgrove School District consists of 5 schools, including 3 elementary schools, 1 middle school, and 1 high school, serving students in the Pottsgrove area. The district's schools display a mix of academic performance, with Pottsgrove Senior High School standing out as the top performer, boasting the highest graduation rate at 95.3% and the lowest dropout rate at 1.3%. Additionally, the high school outperforms the state average on Keystone Exams in Literature.
Among the elementary schools, West Pottsgrove Elementary School has the lowest student-teacher ratio at 11.3, compared to the other elementary schools in the district. The district's student population is diverse, with white students making up the largest racial group, followed by significant percentages of African American and Hispanic students. However, there are notable socioeconomic disparities, as the percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch ranges from 34.48% at the high school to over 50% at the elementary schools.
Per-student spending also varies considerably across the district, with the highest spending at West Pottsgrove Elementary ($21,216) and the lowest at Pottsgrove Senior High School ($17,605). This could be an area for further investigation to understand the factors driving these differences and ensure equitable resource allocation across the district's schools.
