With 298 students and a student-teacher ratio of 11:1, the school is ranked 292 out of 891 Pennsylvania middle schools and rated 3 out of 5 stars by SchoolDigger.

Conneaut Lake Middle School performs better than the state average in PSSA (Pennsylvania System of School Assessment) tests across all grades and subjects. In 2023-2024, the school had 46.5% of students proficient or better in Math, compared to the state average of 40.4%, and 56.1% of students proficient or better in English Language Arts, compared to the state average of 53%. The school also outperformed the state in Science, with 53.6% of students proficient or better. Additionally, Conneaut Lake Middle School has relatively low dropout rates, ranging from 0.0% to 1.6% over the past few years, which is lower than the state average. However, the school has a very high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, with rates ranging from 99% to 100% in recent years, indicating a high level of economic disadvantage among the student population.

Compared to nearby schools, Conneaut Lake Middle School's performance is generally on par with or slightly better than its neighboring schools within the Conneaut School District, such as Conneaut Valley Middle School. However, when compared to schools in other districts, such as Northwestern Middle School and Meadville Middle School, Conneaut Lake Middle School appears to outperform these schools in most academic areas. The school's strong academic performance, particularly for its low socioeconomic status (SES) students, is commendable, but it may need to address the performance gaps for its white and disabled student subgroups to ensure equitable outcomes for all students.

As you review the school rankings data, please be aware that some of the information from certain demographics is missing. The reason for this omission is that the data has been redacted from the source data itself due to low population samples in these specific demographic groups.

Redacting data from low population samples is a necessary step to ensure the reliability and accuracy of the results, as small sample sizes may not be representative of the broader population. Additionally, this measure helps protect the privacy of individuals belonging to these demographic groups.

About Students eligible for discounted/free lunch:

The National School Lunch Program (NSLP) provides low-cost or free meals to students in U.S. public and nonprofit private schools based on household income. Those with incomes below 130% of the poverty line receive free lunch, while those between 130% and 185% qualify for reduced-price lunch. The percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch serves as a marker for poverty, as it reflects the socioeconomic status of families in a given school or district. A higher FRPL rate typically indicates a higher concentration of low-income families, suggesting that the school or district may face additional challenges in providing adequate resources and support for student success.

About Student-Teacher Ratio

Student/teacher ratio is calculated by dividing the total number of students by the total number of full-time equivalent teachers. Please note that a smaller student/teacher ratio does not necessarily translate to smaller class size. In some instances, schools hire teachers part time, and some teachers are hired for specialized instruction with very small class sizes. These and other factors contribute to the student/teacher ratio. Note: For private schools, Student/teacher ratio may not include Pre-Kindergarten.
