The school has a diverse student population, with a majority of White students and smaller percentages of African American, Hispanic, and other racial/ethnic groups.

While Wyoming Area Intermediate Center lags behind the state average in Math proficiency, it outperforms the state in Science and English Language Arts. In 2022-2023, the school had 28% proficiency in Math, compared to the state average of 39.3%, but 72.9% proficiency in Science and 42.6% proficiency in English Language Arts, both higher than the state averages.

Compared to nearby middle schools, Wyoming Area Intermediate Center generally performs better than schools in the Scranton and Wilkes-Barre school districts, which have lower test scores and higher percentages of economically disadvantaged students.

The school's consistent performance over the years suggests a stable educational environment, but the economic challenges faced by the student population may impact the school's ability to provide additional support and enrichment opportunities.

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.
