Summary:
The Saint Clair Area School District in Pennsylvania has only one school, Saint Clair Area El/Middle School, which serves grades K-8 with a total enrollment of 532 students. The school has a majority white student population (80.64%), with significant Hispanic (11.65%) and African American (5.64%) representation. While the school outperforms the state average in academic proficiency for the lower grades, its performance declines in the upper grades, particularly in math and English Language Arts.
The school's high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch (67.11%) indicates a significant level of economic disadvantage among the student population, which may contribute to the academic performance challenges observed in the upper grades. Additionally, the school district's low per-student spending of $28, which is significantly lower than the state average, suggests that resource constraints may be a factor in the school's performance.
Despite these challenges, Saint Clair Area El/Middle School maintains an excellent 0.0% dropout rate, demonstrating its commitment to student success. However, the school's performance, particularly in the upper grades, suggests the need for further investigation and targeted interventions to address the underlying factors contributing to the academic achievement gaps observed in the data.
