Summary:

The 16729 zip code is home to a single public high school, Otto-Eldred Junior/Senior High School, which serves grades 7-12 with a total enrollment of 280 students. The school is part of the Otto-Eldred School District, which is ranked 174 out of 610 school districts in Pennsylvania and has a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Otto-Eldred Junior/Senior High School has maintained relatively strong academic performance, with proficiency rates in PSSA Math, Science, and English Language Arts consistently above the state average. However, the school's performance on the Keystone Biology exam was below the state average, indicating a potential need to focus on improving science-related instruction and outcomes. The school's free and reduced lunch rate of 39.64% suggests a significant portion of the student population comes from economically disadvantaged backgrounds, which could be an important factor to consider when analyzing the school's performance and resource needs.

Despite these challenges, Otto-Eldred Junior/Senior High School has shown signs of improvement, with its statewide ranking moving from 448th out of 634 Pennsylvania high schools in 2021-2022 to 336th out of 686 in 2023-2024. The school's consistent enrollment of around 280 students and a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 13.6 indicate a stable learning environment, which may contribute to its academic success.
