District-Level NCES Analysis
Neshaminy Sd operates 10 public schools serving 9,468 students, placing it among the smaller districts in Pennsylvania. The school portfolio breaks down into 9 elementary, 1 high schools, a compact enough portfolio that families can compare every campus directly before they move, rent, or enrol. These enrollment and school figures come from the NCES Common Core of Data (CCD) 2024-25 release, and the district is based in Bucks County.
Per-pupil expenditure runs $17,164 according to the NCES F-33 School District Finance Survey, in the lower half of 672 Pennsylvania districts by per-pupil spending. See how Pennsylvania compares in our national per-pupil spending analysis. The funding mix is 71.1% local, 24.6% state, and 4.3% federal, a local-revenue-heavy mix that leaves the district more exposed to property-tax swings and local ballot measures than state-funded peers. The district's equity score is 25/100, ranked #570 of 649 in Pennsylvania against a state average of 49, notably less even than the typical district in the state for how evenly funding reaches its schools.
Academic infrastructure includes 1 of 10 schools offering Advanced Placement (17 AP courses district-wide), a 416:1 student-counselor ratio, above both the ASCA benchmark and the roughly 408:1 national average, and 19.1% chronic absenteeism from the 2021-22 Civil Rights Data Collection. Demographically, the student body averages 72.4% White, 9.2% Hispanic or Latino, 7.1% Asian across the district's schools. Its most demographically mixed campus is Joseph E Ferderbar El Sch, with a diversity index of 55.1/100.
Its largest campus is Neshaminy Hs, enrolling 2,916 students (31% of the district's total enrollment). Its smallest is Schweitzer El Sch, at 407 students, a 7x enrollment spread across the district's campuses.
Neshaminy Hs accounts for 30.8% of all Neshaminy Sd student enrollment
That dominant concentration means Neshaminy Sd-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. Enrollment-weighted aggregates give this entity more weight than any smaller peer, while an unweighted entity average treats every record equally.
Neshaminy Sd school enrollment varies 7.2× across entities
Neshaminy Sd school enrollment ranges from 407 students (lowest) to 2,916 students (highest), a spread of 2,509 students. That relatively narrow ratio reflects an unusually homogeneous campus portfolio, most districts have a wider mix of school sizes. Per-school staffing ratios, programme availability, and capital-renovation cycles often diverge inside the same district based on enrollment shape.
Neshaminy Sd student-counselor ratio is 416:1 — high (typically associated with staffing constraints that limit per-student counselor time; CRDC data shows higher ratios cluster in larger urban systems)
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 Higher values may reflect larger urban scale or recent resource constraints that have widened the gap.
Neshaminy Sd chronic absenteeism rate is 19.1% — near the typical range (US average ~28) — aligned with the national post-pandemic baseline of roughly 28% chronic absenteeism
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 Variation between sub-units within Neshaminy Sd is typically wider than the Neshaminy Sd-aggregate figure suggests.
