Despite the school's low student-teacher ratio of 12:1, which is generally considered favorable for student learning, and per-student spending above the national average but below the state average, Uniontown Elementary's academic performance remains poor.

Further analysis and targeted interventions may be necessary to address the school's performance issues and support student success.
