Summary:

Heights Terrace El/Middle School is a public elementary and middle school located in Hazleton, Pennsylvania, serving 1,138 students in grades K-8. The school is part of the Hazleton Area School District, which is ranked 488 out of 606 districts in the state and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Despite the school's high spending of $10,096 per student, which is above the state average, Heights Terrace El/Middle School consistently ranks in the bottom 15% of Pennsylvania elementary schools, with only 11% of students proficient or better in PSSA Math and 29.6% proficient or better in PSSA English Language Arts. The school's performance is particularly low for Hispanic, English Language Learner, and Disabled student subgroups, ranking in the bottom 30% of Pennsylvania schools for these groups. This is in stark contrast to nearby schools in the Hazleton Area School District, which have significantly lower percentages of Hispanic students, ranging from 20.64% to 58.05%.

The school's high percentage of economically disadvantaged students, with 100% receiving free or reduced-price lunch, may be a contributing factor to the academic challenges. While the school has seen a decline in dropout rates, from 3.0% in 2018-2019 to 0.3% in 2022-2023, the overall academic performance remains a concern. Targeted interventions and support for the school's specific student population, as well as a focus on improving instructional quality and aligning with state standards, may be necessary to drive meaningful improvements in student learning and achievement.

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.
