District-Level NCES Analysis
Tri-Valley Sd operates 3 public schools serving 880 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 Schuylkill County.
Per-pupil expenditure runs $14,203 according to the NCES F-33 School District Finance Survey, among the bottom 68 of 671 Pennsylvania districts by per-pupil spending. See how Pennsylvania compares in our national per-pupil spending analysis. The funding mix is 42.1% local, 50.2% state, and 7.7% federal, a state-revenue-heavy mix that insulates the district somewhat from local property-tax volatility, though it ties funding to state budget cycles. The district's equity score is 34/100, ranked #482 of 648 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 3 schools offering Advanced Placement (3 AP courses district-wide), a 367:1 student-counselor ratio, well above the ASCA benchmark though still under the roughly 408:1 national average, and 9.7% chronic absenteeism from the 2021-22 Civil Rights Data Collection. Demographically, the student body averages 95.8% White, 1.7% Hispanic or Latino, 0.4% African American across the district's schools. Its most demographically mixed campus is Hegins-Hubley El Sch, with a diversity index of 11.8/100.
Its largest campus is Tri-Valley Jshs, enrolling 427 students (48% of the district's total enrollment).
Tri-Valley Jshs accounts for 48.4% of all Tri-Valley Sd student enrollment
That is an overwhelming concentration, leaving the rest of Tri-Valley Sd a distant remainder — means Tri-Valley 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.
Tri-Valley Sd school enrollment varies 2.9× across entities
Tri-Valley Sd school enrollment ranges from 148 students (lowest) to 427 students (highest), a spread of 279 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.
Tri-Valley Sd student-counselor ratio is 367:1 — 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.
Tri-Valley Sd chronic absenteeism rate is 9.7% — well below typical (typically associated with unusually small scale or exceptionally high per-unit investment)
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 below typical often correlate with unusually small scale or population characteristics rather than higher resource budgets per se — worth checking whether the underlying denominator is itself an outlier.
