CW East has the greatest HOME/SCHOOL connection.

We're fairly new and I'm not too thrilled. I dpn't know if they give the worse teachers to the new students, but all this teacher cares about is homework and getting papers signed. If the parent forgets to sign the paper, the child is penalized. My daughter's help with her special needs was also cancelled at this school.

Awesome school! Penn State Univ does 'Lab Lion' with the school. It is a science ciricullum in a science lab. Even 1st grade (and I think kindergarten) gets to partake in this. Principal and staff are great. All dedicated to the children. I cannot say enough positive things about this elementary school. PTO is small. Due to scheduling conflicts, I have not been able to be active in PTO, but they do a lot for the kids. Computer lab is outstanding - PCs and MACs.

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.
