Summary:
The Clearfield Area School District has only one elementary school, Clearfield Area Elementary School, which serves grades K-6 with an enrollment of 1,059 students. While the school's student-teacher ratio of 11.5 is lower than the state average, its academic performance on PSSA tests is consistently below the Pennsylvania state averages in both math and English language arts proficiency.
Clearfield Area Elementary School is ranked 1032 out of 1526 Pennsylvania elementary schools and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger. With 100% of its students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, the school faces significant challenges due to high levels of economic disadvantage among its student population. Despite the relatively high per-student spending of $17,273, the school's academic outcomes suggest inefficient allocation of resources and a need for targeted interventions to improve student learning.
Overall, the data indicates that Clearfield Area Elementary School is struggling to provide a high-quality education to its students. The school's below-average performance on standardized tests, high poverty levels, and questions around resource utilization warrant further investigation and the implementation of strategies to address these challenges and enhance the educational outcomes for the students in this district.
