Scranton School District serves around 9,300 PK–12 students (about 12 elementary schools) at a 14:1 student–teacher ratio, with 66% minority and over 76% economically disadvantaged students.Academic outcomes remain challenging: only 13% reach math proficiency (vs. 36% statewide) and 31% in reading (vs. 55%). However, Frances Willard Elementary achieved standout growth—51% proficiency in both subjects—thanks to focused basic-skills interventions. To close citywide gaps, the district revived Head Start preschool in 2025, funded in part by federal grants, strengthening early literacy foundations.
This, along with academically intensive after-school programs, aims to reduce learning loss and narrow achievement disparities. By bolstering early education and investing in targeted supports, Scranton is laying the groundwork for more equitable elementary success across all schools.
