This elementary school is perfect for young children. Not only does the school have dedicated, caring teachers and staff, but the school also has a variety of activities and extra courses (art, music, etc.). The small size of the school provides the environment for safety, comfort, and nurturing of each student. Our child has flourished there. We keep in touch with the teacher and the staff. The people working there are loved by the children.

About the tests


In 2011-2012 Pennsylvania used the Pennsylvania System of State Assessments (PSSA) to test students in grades 3 through 8 and 11 in math and reading, in grades 5, 8 and 11 in writing, and in grades 4, 8 and 11 in science. The results for reading, writing, science and math are displayed on GreatSchools profiles. The PSSA is a standards-based test, which means it measures how well students are mastering specific skills defined for each grade by the state of Pennsylvania. The goal is for all students to score at or above proficient on the test.
