Frazier High School

Summary:

Frazier High School is a public high school located in Perryopolis, Pennsylvania, serving grades 9-12 with a student population of 283. The school is part of the Frazier School District, which is ranked 424 out of 606 districts in Pennsylvania and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Frazier High School faces significant challenges, including declining academic performance, a relatively homogeneous student population, and a decreasing statewide ranking. The school's academic performance, as measured by Keystone Exam proficiency rates, is consistently lower than the state averages and the nearby schools, such as Yough Senior High School and Connellsville Area Senior High School. For example, in 2022-2023, Frazier High School's proficiency rates were 7.8% in Algebra I, 18.8% in Biology, and 29.4% in Literature, compared to the state averages of 34.1%, 50.7%, and 65.3%, respectively.

Additionally, Frazier High School has a significantly higher percentage of white students (95.05%) compared to the surrounding schools, which range from 77.94% to 94.86% white students. The school also has a relatively low percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch (27.56% in 2022-2023), which is lower than the nearby schools, ranging from 32.77% to 100%. These factors suggest that the school may be facing unique challenges that are not shared by its neighbors, and a targeted, data-driven approach to school improvement may be necessary to address the underlying issues and help the school better serve 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.
