Summary:
The 15801 zip code area of DuBois, Pennsylvania is home to 5 schools serving grades K-12, all part of the DuBois Area School District. The standout schools in this area are Oklahoma Elementary School, which ranks in the top 25% of Pennsylvania elementary schools, and DuBois Area Middle School, which ranks in the top 30% of Pennsylvania middle schools. These schools consistently outperform district and state averages on standardized tests, with Oklahoma Elementary having the highest proficiency rates in math and science among the elementary schools.
The schools in this area serve a predominantly low-income population, with 99-100% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch. This high poverty level may present unique challenges, but the data shows the district is able to maintain relatively small class sizes, with student-teacher ratios ranging from 11.2 to 13.9. Spending per student also varies, from $14,759 to $17,866 per year, suggesting the district may allocate resources unevenly across the schools.
Another notable characteristic of the schools in the 15801 zip code is the lack of racial diversity, with white students making up over 92% of the student population. This homogeneity may indicate a need for the district to explore ways to promote greater inclusion and representation within the school community. Overall, the data highlights the strengths of the top-performing schools, as well as potential areas for improvement in addressing the diverse needs of the student population.
