See how Pennsylvania compares in our national per-pupil spending analysis. The funding mix is 32.4% local, 51.3% state, and 16.3% 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 80/100, ranked #47 of 649 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.

Its largest campus is Warren Area Hs, enrolling 704 students (19% of the district's total enrollment). Its smallest is Sheffield Area El Sch, at 198 students, a 4x enrollment spread across the district's campuses.

Warren Area Hs accounts for 18.0% of all Warren County Sd student enrollment

That concentration means Warren County 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.

Warren County Sd school enrollment varies 3.6× across entities

Warren County Sd school enrollment ranges from 198 students (lowest) to 704 students (highest), a spread of 506 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.

Warren County Sd reports 92.1% free-lunch eligibility

The reported share is above 87.5%, so economic need is widespread across the measured student population. Title I operates under the Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA, 2015), but its statutory allocation uses additional LEA-level counts and rules not represented by this average. This percentage is an economic-need context measure; it does not establish a Title I award, show dollars received, or describe how funds are distributed among campuses.

Warren County Sd student-counselor ratio is 318:1 — 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 Warren County Sd is typically wider than the Warren County Sd-aggregate figure suggests.

Source: NCES Civil Rights Data Collection

Warren County Sd chronic absenteeism rate is 46.8% — 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.
