Summary:
The 18657 zip code area is home to 4 schools in the Tunkhannock Area School District, including 2 elementary schools, 1 middle school, and 1 high school. While the district as a whole has room for improvement, with a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger, there are some standout schools that deserve attention.
The Tunkhannock Area Intermediate School stands out for its strong performance in PSSA Science, with proficiency rates well above the district and state averages. However, the school's PSSA Math proficiency is slightly below the district and state levels. In contrast, the Tunkhannock STEM Academy has a lower student-teacher ratio and a 0% dropout rate, but its PSSA Math proficiency is also below the district and state averages.
Across the district, the schools serve a predominantly white, high-poverty student population, with free or reduced-price lunch rates ranging from 57.42% at Tunkhannock High School to 100% at Tunkhannock Area Primary Center. This suggests that the district faces unique challenges in supporting its students and may require targeted interventions to address the needs of its high-need population.
