Elementary Schools in Union City Area School District

The Union City Area School District in Pennsylvania has only one elementary school, Union City Elementary School, which serves students from grades K-5. The school's performance has declined over the past three years, with its statewide ranking dropping from 638 out of 1,534 Pennsylvania elementary schools in 2021-2022 to 1,034 out of 1,526 in 2023-2024.

Union City Elementary School's academic performance is mixed, with below-average proficiency in math and English Language Arts compared to the state average, but above-average proficiency in science. The school serves a high-poverty student population, with 96.89% of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch in the 2022-2023 school year. The district as a whole is ranked 381 out of 610 in Pennsylvania and is rated 2 stars out of 5 by SchoolDigger, indicating systemic challenges that may be impacting the performance of individual schools.

While Union City Elementary School has a lower student-teacher ratio of 13.1 compared to the state average, the district's per-student spending of $14,309 for the 2021-2022 school year suggests that additional resources and targeted interventions may be needed to address the academic challenges faced by the school and its students. Addressing these issues at both the school and district levels could be crucial in improving the educational outcomes for the children in the Union City Area School District.
