District-Level NCES Analysis

Riverview Sd operates 3 public schools serving 949 students, placing it among the smallest districts in Pennsylvania. The school portfolio breaks down into 2 elementary, 1 combined 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 Allegheny County.

Per-pupil expenditure runs $22,278 according to the NCES F-33 School District Finance Survey, among the top 68 of 671 Pennsylvania districts by per-pupil spending. See how Pennsylvania compares in our national per-pupil spending analysis. The funding mix is 67.4% local, 25.7% state, and 6.9% 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 65/100, ranked #161 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 3 schools offering Advanced Placement (11 AP courses district-wide), a 257.8:1 student-counselor ratio, somewhat above the 250:1 ASCA recommendation, and 24.9% chronic absenteeism from the 2021-22 Civil Rights Data Collection.

Its largest campus is Riverview Jshs, enrolling 441 students (44% of the district's total enrollment).

Riverview Jshs accounts for 44.4% of all Riverview Sd student enrollment

That dominant concentration means Riverview Sd-wide averages can mask substantial variation outside the dominant entity. Grade band: combined. 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.

Riverview Sd student-counselor ratio is 258:1 — 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 Riverview Sd is typically wider than the Riverview Sd-aggregate figure suggests.

Riverview Sd chronic absenteeism rate is 24.9% — 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 Riverview Sd is typically wider than the Riverview Sd-aggregate figure suggests.
