Best Public Schools in Zip Code 15552


Summary:

The 15552 zip code area is home to three schools that span different grade levels: Meyersdale Area Elementary School, Meyersdale Area High School, and Meyersdale Area Middle School, all part of the Meyersdale Area School District. The data reveals a tale of two school systems, with the elementary and middle schools consistently performing well above state averages, while the high school has seen a decline in its statewide ranking over the past three years.

Meyersdale Area Elementary School and Meyersdale Area Middle School stand out as academic powerhouses, ranking in the top 25% of Pennsylvania schools in their respective categories. The elementary school's PSSA test scores are particularly impressive, with 64.1% of students proficient or better in Math and 68.3% in English Language Arts. The middle school also boasts strong performance, with 65.4% of students proficient or better in English Language Arts. Both schools benefit from relatively low student-teacher ratios, which may contribute to their academic success.

In contrast, the Meyersdale Area High School has seen a concerning decline in its statewide ranking, dropping from the top 50% of Pennsylvania high schools to the bottom 50% over the past three years. This trend warrants further investigation, as the high school's performance appears to lag behind the impressive results of the elementary and middle schools. Additionally, the district as a whole faces socioeconomic challenges, with high rates of free and reduced-price lunch recipients across all three schools, which may be a factor in the high school's declining performance.
