Best Public Schools in Zip Code 15214


Summary:

The 15214 zip code area of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania is home to a single public high school, Pittsburgh Perry High School, which serves grades 9-12. The school is part of the Pittsburgh School District, which is ranked 466 out of 610 districts in the state and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Despite relatively high per-student spending and a low student-teacher ratio, Pittsburgh Perry High School is consistently one of the lowest-performing high schools in Pennsylvania, with very low proficiency rates on state assessments. The school serves a high-poverty student population, with nearly all students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch. This suggests that the school may face significant challenges in terms of student readiness and access to resources outside of school. The school's low rankings and performance metrics indicate that it is likely struggling to provide a high-quality education and support for its students.

Further investigation would be needed to understand the root causes of the school's poor performance and identify potential strategies for improvement, such as targeted interventions, professional development for teachers, or community partnerships to address the needs of the high-poverty student population. Addressing these challenges will likely require a multi-faceted approach that addresses both academic and non-academic factors impacting student success.
