Best Public Schools in Zip Code 17747


Summary:

The 17747 zip code is home to a single school, Sugar Valley Rural Charter School, an alternative public charter school serving grades K-12 with a total enrollment of 473 students.

Sugar Valley Rural Charter School stands out for its high percentage of white students (96.62%) and very low proficiency rates on PSSA Math and ELA assessments compared to state averages. However, the school maintains a strong 94.4% graduation rate and very low 0.4% dropout rate, despite serving a student population that is nearly 100% eligible for free or reduced-price lunch. This suggests the school is effectively supporting students to complete their education, even with the significant economic disadvantages they face.

With per-student spending of $18,228, the school appears to be allocating significant resources to support its high-needs student population. While the academic performance lags behind state averages, the school's ability to keep students engaged and graduating is a notable achievement. The lack of racial diversity, with the student body being overwhelmingly white, may be reflective of the rural, economically disadvantaged community the Sugar Valley Rural Charter School serves.
