Columbia-Montour Avts operates 1 public schools serving 609 students, placing it among the smallest districts in Pennsylvania. The school portfolio breaks down into 1 high schools, a small enough portfolio that most families will interact with nearly every campus in the district at some point. These enrollment and school figures come from the NCES Common Core of Data (CCD) 2024-25 release, and the district is based in Columbia County.
The funding mix is 77.6% local, 15.9% state, and 6.5% federal, a local-revenue-heavy mix that leaves the district more exposed to property-tax swings and local ballot measures than state-funded peers.
a 304.5:1 student-counselor ratio, somewhat above the 250:1 ASCA recommendation, and 49.4% chronic absenteeism from the 2021-22 Civil Rights Data Collection. Demographically, the student body averages 88.5% White, 4.3% Hispanic or Latino, 1.8% African American across the district's schools.
Its largest campus is Columbia-Montour Avts, enrolling 609 students (100% of the district's total enrollment).
Columbia-Montour Avts accounts for 100.0% of all Columbia-Montour Avts student enrollment
That is an overwhelming concentration, leaving the rest of Columbia-Montour Avts a distant remainder — means Columbia-Montour Avts-wide averages can mask substantial variation outside the largest entity. Grade band: high. The share measures enrollment concentration only; it does not establish how the district allocates programs, capital, or staff. Because it contains a majority of the affected population, enrollment-weighted aggregates will sit closer to this entity's reported fields than to those of smaller peers; an unweighted entity count answers a different question.
Columbia-Montour Avts student-counselor ratio is 305:1 — near the typical range (US average ~408) — within the typical range for U.S. public districts
student-counselor ratio is the simplest comparative metric but it does not capture the full picture: the ratio counts FTE counselors against total enrollment, districts that contract intervention or social-emotional staff outside the counselor classification may be under-counted Variation between sub-units within Columbia-Montour Avts is typically wider than the Columbia-Montour Avts-aggregate figure suggests.
Columbia-Montour Avts chronic absenteeism rate is 49.4% — well above typical (typically associated with unusually large scale or acute resource constraints)
chronic absenteeism rate is the simplest comparative metric but it does not capture the full picture: a student is chronically absent if they miss ≥10% of enrolled days for any reason, illness, family obligations, or disengagement Values this far above typical often signal acute resource constraints or a structurally different scale than most peers — worth reading alongside the underlying counts, not the ratio alone.
