Best Public Schools in Zip Code 16701

Summary:

The 16701 zip code area of Pennsylvania is home to 4 schools, including 2 elementary schools, 1 middle school, and 1 high school, all part of the Bradford Area School District. While the schools in this area face significant economic challenges, with all students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, some schools stand out for their academic performance.

Bradford Area High School is a standout, ranking 157 out of 674 Pennsylvania high schools and earning a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger. The school outperforms state and district averages in Keystone Exam proficiency rates for 11th-grade students in Algebra I, Biology, and Literature, and maintains a high 4-year graduation rate of 87.9%. In contrast, School Street Elementary School struggles to meet state and district averages in PSSA proficiency rates for Math and English Language Arts.

The Floyd C Fretz Middle School also stands out, ranking 302 out of 893 Pennsylvania middle schools and outperforming the state and district averages in PSSA proficiency rates for English Language Arts and Science across all grades. However, the predominantly white student population in these schools, coupled with the high poverty levels, raise concerns about equity and access to educational opportunities for underrepresented groups in the area.
