Conrad Weiser High School

Summary:

Conrad Weiser High School is a public high school located in Robesonia, Pennsylvania, serving 842 students in grades 9-12 as part of the Tulpehocken Area School District, which is ranked 303 out of 606 districts in the state.

While Conrad Weiser High School performs well academically, with 70.4% of 11th-grade students proficient or better in Literature, outperforming the state average, the school stands out for its relatively homogeneous student population, with 75.18% of students identifying as White. This is significantly higher than nearby schools like Muhlenberg High School (28.32% White) and Reading Senior High School (4.12% White). Additionally, Conrad Weiser has shown impressive performance among specific student subgroups, ranking 17th out of 260 Pennsylvania high schools for its African American students and 56th out of 252 for its Hispanic students.

Interestingly, while Conrad Weiser High School spends significantly more per student ($20,342 in 2021-2022) compared to some nearby schools, such as Cocalico Senior High School ($4,277 in 2021-2022) and Schuylkill Valley High School ($14,256 in 2021-2022), it is surrounded by a mix of higher-performing and lower-performing schools. This suggests that socioeconomic factors may play a role in the school's success, which is further supported by its relatively low percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch (32.66%) compared to schools like Muhlenberg High School (66.81%) and Reading Senior High School (85.75%).

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.

Open Quote Conrad Weiser is an okay school. It's Agricultural program is incredible but other than that the school is mediocre. Even though there is a dress code no one follows it and all you see is girls running around with short shorts on and guys swearing. About a third of the students are in special education even though they don't need it. The school should work in motivating the students so they will want to do better and learn. Close Quote

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.
