Summary:
The 16025 zip code is home to a single elementary school, Chicora Elementary School, which serves grades K-6 with a total enrollment of 455 students. While the school has a strong science proficiency, its overall academic performance lags behind the district and state averages, particularly in math and English language arts.
Chicora Elementary School has a predominantly white student population, with a relatively high percentage of students (27.03%) receiving free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a higher proportion of students from low-income families. The school's math proficiency (36%) is slightly below the Karns City Area School District (37.6%) and state (39.3%) averages, while its science proficiency (75.9%) is significantly higher than the district (79.2%) and state (65.6%) averages. However, the school's English language arts proficiency (45.4%) falls short of the district (57.6%) and state (53.8%) levels.
Despite the school's consistent low performance, with a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger over the past three school years, the high percentage of students from low-income families may contribute to the academic challenges faced by Chicora Elementary School. The school district's spending of $14,123 per student, which is higher than the state average, suggests that there may be opportunities for targeted interventions and support to improve student outcomes, particularly in the areas of math and English language arts.
