The 15143 zip code area is home to 5 schools, including 3 elementary schools, 1 middle school, and 1 alternative school, all part of the North Allegheny School District, Quaker Valley School District, and Pennsylvania Distance Learning Charter School. The data reveals that the schools in the Quaker Valley and North Allegheny districts consistently outperform the state averages, with Franklin Elementary School and Edgeworth Elementary School ranking among the top elementary schools in Pennsylvania.
The Quaker Valley schools, including Quaker Valley Middle School, demonstrate exceptional test scores, low dropout rates, and high spending per student, suggesting a strong focus on academic excellence and student support. In contrast, the Pennsylvania Distance Learning Charter School, the area's alternative school, has significantly lower test scores compared to the state and local district averages, potentially indicating challenges in providing a high-quality education in a virtual learning environment.
The free/reduced lunch rates across the schools vary, with Franklin Elementary School having a very low rate and the Quaker Valley schools having higher rates, suggesting that the schools serve student populations with different socioeconomic backgrounds. This diversity in student populations may impact the educational needs and resources required by each school.
