Wyoming Valley West School District


Summary:

The Wyoming Valley West School District in Pennsylvania operates 6 schools, including 4 elementary schools, 1 middle school, and 1 high school. The district serves a predominantly low-income population, with extremely high rates of free and reduced-price lunch recipients across all schools.

While two elementary schools, Dana Elementary Center and Chester Street Elementary School, outperform the district and state averages in PSSA assessments, the other schools in the district struggle significantly. The high school and middle school, in particular, have very low proficiency rates, with only 33.1% proficient or better in Algebra I and 40.7% in Biology at the high school level.

The wide range in per-student spending and student-teacher ratios across the schools suggests potential concerns about the equity and efficiency of resource allocation within the district. Given the high levels of economic disadvantage among the student population, targeted interventions and support may be necessary to address the academic challenges faced by the majority of schools in the Wyoming Valley West School District.
