Mt Wolf Elementary boasts impressive academic achievements, with 70.5% of its students proficient or better in Math and 62.3% in English Language Arts for the 2022-2023 school year.

The higher spending per student at Mt Wolf Elementary, $17,474 versus $15,151 at Northeastern Middle School, may contribute to the school's strong performance.

While Northeastern Middle School still performs reasonably well on test scores compared to the district and state, its statewide ranking has dropped from 227 out of 883 Pennsylvania middle schools in 2021-2022 to 369 out of 893 in 2022-2023. This decline warrants further investigation into the underlying factors, such as changes in curriculum, teaching quality, or student demographics. Both schools serve a significant proportion of economically disadvantaged students, with free or reduced-price lunch rates of 46.94% at Mt Wolf Elementary and 43.64% at Northeastern Middle School, which may also play a role in the academic performance of the schools.
