Summary:
The 15423 zip code area is home to 4 schools, including 2 elementary schools, 1 middle school, and 1 high school. While the schools share some positive attributes, such as low dropout rates, they also face significant challenges in academic performance, particularly in math proficiency.
The California Area Senior High School stands out with a high 4-year graduation rate of 92.1% and a low dropout rate of 0.3%, but its academic performance on Keystone Exams is concerning, with low proficiency rates compared to the state average. Similarly, the California Area Middle School has an impressive 0% dropout rate, but its math proficiency rates are significantly lower than the state and district averages. The California Academy of Learning Charter School, a small elementary school, has a high percentage of white students (95.65%) and a high free/reduced lunch rate (73.91%), with mixed academic performance.
Across the schools in the 15423 zip code, there are significant disparities in academic performance, particularly in math, with most schools performing well below the state average. The student populations are also predominantly white, with limited racial/ethnic diversity. Additionally, the wide range in per-student spending, from $10,598 to $19,341, suggests potential inequities in resource allocation across the schools. These findings suggest the need for further investigation and targeted interventions to address the underlying issues and improve educational outcomes for all students in the California Area School District and the California Academy of Learning Charter School area.
