Summary:
The Ridley School District in Pennsylvania has one middle school, Ridley Middle School, which serves grades 6-8. While the school has a relatively low student-teacher ratio, its academic performance has been declining in recent years, with proficiency rates in math and science significantly lower than state and district averages.
Ridley Middle School's statewide ranking has dropped from 519th out of 883 middle schools in 2021-2022 to 458th out of 891 in 2023-2024, and it is rated 2 out of 5 stars by SchoolDigger, indicating below-average performance compared to other middle schools in Pennsylvania. The school's dropout rate is slightly higher than the state average, and a high percentage of its students (55.75%) receive free or reduced-price lunch, suggesting a relatively high level of economic disadvantage among the student population.
Despite the school's higher-than-average spending per student, its academic performance continues to lag behind state and district averages, particularly in math and science proficiency. The school's leadership and the Ridley School District may need to develop targeted strategies to address these areas of concern and improve overall student outcomes at Ridley Middle School.
