Best Public Schools in Zip Code 18052


Summary:

The 18052 zip code area is home to 5 schools in the Whitehall-Coplay School District, including 3 elementary schools, 1 middle school, and 1 high school. While the schools show a mix of performance on standardized tests, with some exceeding district and state averages, there are a few standout institutions in the area.

Whitehall High School has seen a decline in its statewide ranking in recent years, dropping from 231 out of 634 Pennsylvania high schools in 2021-2022 to 401 out of 686 in 2023-2024. However, the school maintains a strong 87.5% four-year graduation rate and a relatively low 1.6% dropout rate. In contrast, Zephyr Elementary School and George D. Steckel Elementary School have consistently ranked in the top half of Pennsylvania elementary schools, with Zephyr standing out for its high proficiency rates in PSSA Math and Science.

Across the district, the schools serve a predominantly low-income population, with all schools reporting high percentages of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 84.65% at Whitehall High School to 100% at the three elementary schools and Whitehall-Coplay Middle School. This high poverty level may have implications for the resources and support needed to address the unique challenges faced by these students, and further analysis would be needed to ensure equity within the district.
