Best Public Schools in Zip Code 19055


Summary:

The 19055 zip code in Pennsylvania is home to a single elementary school, Brookwood Elementary School, which serves students from kindergarten through 5th grade. While the school has a diverse student population, its academic performance on standardized tests lags behind both state and district averages, raising concerns about the quality of education provided to its students.

Brookwood Elementary School's PSSA (Pennsylvania System of School Assessment) proficiency rates in math (24.7%) and English language arts (27%) are significantly lower than the state averages of 39.3% and 53.8%, respectively. The school's science proficiency rate of 48% is also below the state average of 65.6%. Additionally, the school has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger, indicating it is among the lowest-performing elementary schools in Pennsylvania.

The school's high poverty levels, with 100% of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, may contribute to its academic challenges. Despite the school's relatively high spending per student ($19,046), the data suggests that the resources are not being effectively utilized to improve student outcomes. Targeted interventions and support, such as professional development for teachers and additional academic programs, may be necessary to address the school's persistent underperformance and provide a high-quality education for its students.
