Southmoreland Middle School stands out with significant improvement in its statewide ranking, moving from 400th to 215th in just a few years. It also holds the highest 4-star rating among the district's schools. Meanwhile, Southmoreland Elementary School has consistently maintained a 2-star rating and strong performance on PSSA science tests.
