Uniontown Area School District

Summary:

The Uniontown Area School District in Pennsylvania operates 9 schools, including 6 elementary schools, 2 middle schools, and 1 high school. The district as a whole is ranked 378 out of 610 school districts in the state and is rated 2 out of 5 stars by SchoolDigger.

Within the district, a few schools stand out. Menallen School, an elementary school, consistently performs well, ranking in the top half of Pennsylvania elementary schools. A.J. McMullen School, a middle school, has shown significant improvement, moving from a 2-star to a 4-star rating in recent years. Additionally, the small Marclay School elementary school has exceptional performance, ranking in the top 30% of Pennsylvania elementary schools.

However, the data also reveals wide disparities in academic achievement across the district. While some schools excel, others like Lafayette Elementary and Lafayette Middle School struggle, with less than 25% of students proficient in math. This suggests the need for targeted interventions and support to address these disparities. Additionally, Uniontown Area Senior High School has seen a decline in its state ranking over the past three years, indicating room for improvement at the high school level.
