East Stroudsburg Senior High School North

Summary:

East Stroudsburg Senior High School North is a public high school serving 940 students in grades 9-12 in Dingmans Ferry, Pennsylvania, which is part of the East Stroudsburg Area School District. While the school has seen a decline in its statewide ranking and rating in recent years, it performs relatively well for its African American and Hispanic student populations, ranking 118th and 179th out of Pennsylvania high schools, respectively, in the 2023-2024 school year.

However, the school's performance for its White and low socioeconomic status student groups is much lower, ranking 502nd and 550th out of Pennsylvania high schools, respectively. This may be due to the high percentage of students (over 54% in 2022-2023) who qualify for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a significant population of students from low-income families. While the school has a relatively high per-student spending of $25,880 in 2021-2022, this higher spending does not seem to be translating into improved academic outcomes, suggesting that the school may need to re-evaluate its resource allocation and focus on more effective strategies to support student learning.

In comparison, the nearby Delaware Valley High School ranks much higher at 24th out of 686 Pennsylvania high schools and has a 5-star rating, while the East Stroudsburg Senior High School South has a higher statewide ranking (399 out of 686) and a 2-star rating. By addressing the socioeconomic factors and re-evaluating its resource allocation, East Stroudsburg Senior High School North may be able to improve its overall academic performance and provide a more equitable education for all its 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.
