Education intelligence for Lehigh County.
Start with the county snapshot, then move into academic outcomes, students and access, completion, educator workforce, and community context.
County profile
Education indicators are shown as separate evidence layers. No single metric is treated as a school-quality score, and suppressed or unavailable public values are not estimated.
Assessment performance
2025 PSSA and Keystone public reporting, with Pennsylvania benchmarks retained whenever a county rollup is unavailable.
PSSA Grades 3–8
Proficient or Advanced by grade and subject.
Keystone Exams
Algebra I, Biology and Literature proficiency context.
County assessment values appear only when official records can be reliably mapped. Suppressed or unavailable cells remain unavailable.
Enrollment and learning access
Public enrollment, English Learners, economic-disadvantage reporting and early-learning access are shown as context measures—not individual labels.
Enrollment profile
Current county-ready public-school measures.
Early learning access
PA Pre-K Counts and Head Start Supplemental Assistance funded slots.
Graduation, dropout and attendance
Latest Pennsylvania cohort completion data and public attendance context.
Pennsylvania’s Future Ready PA Index reports regular attendance as an accountability indicator. Use the official system for school- and LEA-level detail.

Methodology & sourcesView public data inventory and interpretation notes+
PSSA and Keystone results are assessment outcomes. County rollups use test counts as weights when underlying records support it. Suppressed cells are never imputed.
English Learner and economic-disadvantage data are aggregate school-system characteristics. They are not used to classify individual NYA users.
Income, poverty, employment, attainment and broadband are population measures. Correlation does not establish that socioeconomic conditions cause a particular student's outcome.
