District-Level NCES Analysis
Pennsbury Sd operates 14 public schools serving 9,608 students, placing it among the smaller districts in Pennsylvania. The school portfolio breaks down into 10 elementary, 3 middle, 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 $19,690 according to the NCES F-33 School District Finance Survey, in the upper half of 671 Pennsylvania districts by per-pupil spending. See how Pennsylvania compares in our national per-pupil spending analysis. The funding mix is 71.6% local, 23.6% state, and 4.8% 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 60/100, ranked #203 of 648 in Pennsylvania against a state average of 49, notably more even than the typical district in the state for how evenly funding reaches its schools.
Academic infrastructure includes 1 of 14 schools offering Advanced Placement (24 AP courses district-wide), a 374.8:1 student-counselor ratio, well above the ASCA benchmark though still under the roughly 408:1 national average, and 17.7% chronic absenteeism from the 2021-22 Civil Rights Data Collection. Demographically, the student body averages 71.6% White, 9.8% Hispanic or Latino, 6.3% Asian across the district's schools. Its most demographically mixed campus is Walt Disney El Sch, with a diversity index of 52.6/100.
Its largest campus is Pennsbury Hs, enrolling 2,847 students (30% of the district's total enrollment). Its smallest is Fallsington El Sch, at 256 students, a 11x enrollment spread across the district's campuses.
Pennsbury Hs accounts for 29.6% of all Pennsbury Sd student enrollment
That dominant concentration means Pennsbury Sd-wide averages can mask substantial variation outside the dominant entity. Grade band: high. A single dominant campus often anchors a district's program offerings and staffing patterns; the share helps explain why district-wide averages may not reflect the typical neighbourhood-school experience. When one entity dominates a region's footprint, its programmatic and budget decisions effectively set policy for a majority of the affected population.
Pennsbury Sd school enrollment varies 11× across entities
Pennsbury Sd school enrollment ranges from 256 students (lowest) to 2,847 students (highest), a spread of 2,591 students. That spread reflects typical mixed-portfolio variation between specialty programs and large neighbourhood schools. Per-school staffing ratios, programme availability, and capital-renovation cycles often diverge inside the same district based on enrollment shape.
Pennsbury Sd student-counselor ratio is 375:1 — 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.
Pennsbury Sd chronic absenteeism rate is 17.7% — 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 Pennsbury Sd is typically wider than the Pennsbury Sd-aggregate figure suggests.
