Summary:
Shikellamy School District in Pennsylvania has only one middle school, Shikellamy Middle School, which serves grades 6-8. The school's performance, as measured by standardized test scores, is generally below the state and district averages, and its ranking among Pennsylvania middle schools has declined in recent years.
Shikellamy Middle School's proficiency rates in PSSA Math, Science, and English Language Arts are consistently lower than the state and district averages. For example, in the 2023-2024 school year, the school's proficiency rate in PSSA Math for all grades was 29.3%, compared to the district average of 34.6% and the state average of 40.4%. However, the school's performance in PSSA Science is relatively stronger, with a proficiency rate of 57.9% for all grades in 2023-2024, compared to the district average of 70.1% and the state average of 65.8%.
The school also faces other challenges, such as a high dropout rate of 1.6% in the 2022-2023 school year and a 100% free and reduced lunch rate, indicating a high percentage of students from low-income families. While the school's performance is generally below average, the data suggests that there may be opportunities for improvement, particularly in areas like PSSA Math and English Language Arts proficiency.
