Southeast Delco School District


Summary:

The Southeast Delco School District in Pennsylvania operates 6 schools, including 5 elementary schools and 1 high school, serving students from pre-kindergarten through 12th grade. The district faces significant challenges in providing a quality education, with most schools performing well below state averages on standardized tests.

Among the standout schools, Darby Township School has the highest proficiency rates in Math, Science, and English Language Arts, as well as the highest spending per student at $11,630. Harris School also stands out with the lowest student-teacher ratio at 12.8, which may contribute to its relatively stronger academic performance. In contrast, Academy Park High School has the lowest proficiency rates on state assessments, with only 15-40% of students scoring proficient or better in core subjects.

The district as a whole ranks 503 out of 610 districts in Pennsylvania and receives a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger, indicating significant room for improvement. The consistently high free/reduced lunch rates across the schools, ranging from 95% to 100%, suggest a high-need student population that the district is struggling to serve effectively. Targeted interventions and support may be needed to improve student outcomes across the Southeast Delco School District.
