Summary:
The 18326 zip code is home to a single public charter high school, Evergreen Community Charter School, serving grades 6-12 with a total enrollment of 102 students. While the school has seen fluctuations in its statewide ranking, it maintains a strong 94.1% four-year graduation rate and a 0% dropout rate, indicating positive academic outcomes for its diverse student population.
Evergreen Community Charter School's student body is predominantly White (67.65%), with significant representation from Hispanic (17.65%) and African American (12.75%) students. The school's academic performance is mixed, with strengths in some subject areas like PSSA Science and English Language Arts, but weaknesses in others, particularly PSSA Math. This uneven performance suggests the need for a closer examination of the school's curriculum, instructional practices, and resource allocation to address these disparities.
Despite the school's relatively high spending of $16,040 per student, which is higher than the state average, its statewide ranking has declined significantly in recent years, from 229 out of 537 Pennsylvania high schools in 2020-2021 to 496 out of 674 in 2022-2023. This concerning trend warrants further investigation to understand the underlying factors and develop strategies to improve the school's overall quality and performance for the benefit of the Evergreen Community Charter School community.
