Best Public Schools in Zip Code 17020


Summary:

The 17020 zip code area is home to three schools that serve students from kindergarten through 12th grade, all part of the Susquenita School District. While the schools show some areas of strength, the data reveals consistent underperformance in math across all three campuses, with proficiency rates significantly below the state averages.

Susquenita Elementary School stands out for its relatively strong performance in PSSA Science and English Language Arts, exceeding the district and state averages in these subjects. However, the school, along with Susquenita Middle School, struggles with PSSA Math proficiency, with rates well below the state average. Susquenita High School maintains a relatively high 4-year graduation rate but performs below the state average on Keystone Algebra I exams.

The schools in the 17020 zip code area face socioeconomic challenges, with a significant percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch. While the district appears to be allocating resources effectively, with relatively low student-teacher ratios and high per-student spending, the academic performance data suggests that there may be opportunities to further optimize resource utilization and target areas of need, particularly in mathematics.
