Churchville Elementary School

Summary:

Churchville Elementary School is a public elementary school serving 556 students in grades K-6 in the highly-rated Council Rock School District in Churchville, Pennsylvania. This school consistently ranks in the top 30% of Pennsylvania elementary schools, with a current ranking of 446 out of 1,526 schools.

Churchville Elementary stands out for its exceptional academic performance, consistently outperforming the state average in PSSA test scores across all subjects and grade levels. In 2023-2024, the school had 63% of students proficient or better in Math, compared to the state average of 40.4%. In Science, the school had 86.2% proficiency, well above the state's 65.8%. The school also excels in supporting certain student subgroups, with female students ranking in the top 274 out of 1,488 Pennsylvania elementary schools and disabled students ranking in the top 267 out of 1,084 schools. However, the school struggles more with low socioeconomic status students, ranking 744 out of 1,432 schools in this category.

Churchville Elementary's strong performance is likely due to its relatively low student-teacher ratio of 14.4, as well as the school's significant per-student spending of $20,446 in 2021-2022, which is significantly higher than the state average of around $15,000. While Hillcrest Elementary, the highest-ranked school in the Council Rock School District, outperforms Churchville in most academic metrics, Churchville still exceeds the district and state averages across the board. Additionally, Churchville's performance is notably stronger than that of schools in the neighboring Neshaminy and Centennial school districts.

As you review the school rankings data, please be aware that some of the information from certain demographics is missing. The reason for this omission is that the data has been redacted from the source data itself due to low population samples in these specific demographic groups.

Redacting data from low population samples is a necessary step to ensure the reliability and accuracy of the results, as small sample sizes may not be representative of the broader population. Additionally, this measure helps protect the privacy of individuals belonging to these demographic groups.

About Students eligible for discounted/free lunch:

The National School Lunch Program (NSLP) provides low-cost or free meals to students in U.S. public and nonprofit private schools based on household income. Those with incomes below 130% of the poverty line receive free lunch, while those between 130% and 185% qualify for reduced-price lunch. The percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch serves as a marker for poverty, as it reflects the socioeconomic status of families in a given school or district. A higher FRPL rate typically indicates a higher concentration of low-income families, suggesting that the school or district may face additional challenges in providing adequate resources and support for student success.

About Student-Teacher Ratio

Student/teacher ratio is calculated by dividing the total number of students by the total number of full-time equivalent teachers. Please note that a smaller student/teacher ratio does not necessarily translate to smaller class size. In some instances, schools hire teachers part time, and some teachers are hired for specialized instruction with very small class sizes. These and other factors contribute to the student/teacher ratio. Note: For private schools, Student/teacher ratio may not include Pre-Kindergarten.
