Summary:
The 16651 zip code area is home to two schools, Moshannon Valley Elementary School and Moshannon Valley Junior/Senior High School, both part of the Moshannon Valley School District. These schools serve a predominantly white, low-income student population and face significant challenges in providing a high-quality education.
Neither school stands out as a standout performer, with both the elementary and junior/senior high school ranking below average compared to other schools in Pennsylvania. The elementary school is ranked 1060 out of 1534 Pennsylvania elementary schools and has a 2-star rating, while the junior/senior high school is ranked 489 out of 674 Pennsylvania high schools and has a 1-star rating. Test scores at both schools are generally below the state averages, particularly in math and Keystone exams, suggesting that the schools are struggling to prepare students for academic success.
The high percentage of free/reduced lunch recipients, especially at the elementary school (100%), indicates that the schools serve a predominantly low-income student population, which may be a contributing factor to the lower academic performance. Additionally, the per-student spending at both schools is higher than the state average, but the academic performance does not seem to reflect this higher investment, suggesting that resources may not be used effectively. Overall, the data suggests that the schools in the 16651 zip code area face significant challenges in providing a high-quality education to their students and may require targeted interventions to improve educational outcomes.
