Susquehanna Township School District


Summary:

The Susquehanna Township School District in Pennsylvania serves students from 4 schools, including 2 elementary schools, 1 middle school, and 1 high school. While the district has a diverse student population, the schools consistently underperform state averages on key metrics like test scores, graduation rates, and dropout rates, suggesting systemic challenges that need to be addressed.

The Thomas W Holtzman Junior Elementary School and Sara Lindemuth Elementary School both have high percentages of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 55.32% at the Susquehanna Township High School to 66.71% at Thomas W Holtzman Junior Elementary. This suggests that the district serves a predominantly low-income student population, which may be a contributing factor to the schools' academic struggles.

The significant variation in per-student spending across the schools, from $13,215 at Thomas W Holtzman Junior Elementary to $30,305 at Susquehanna Township High School, raises questions about how resources are being allocated within the Susquehanna Township School District. The data also shows that the schools have consistently performed poorly over the past few years, with no signs of significant improvement, indicating the need for a comprehensive review of the district's policies, resource allocation, and instructional practices.
