Dublin’s public schools outscore 72% of Pennsylvania districts

Math proficiency in Dublin’s districts is 45%, above the Pennsylvania average (36%). The grade covers the public school district serving Dublin, from kindergarten through graduation, on state tests and graduation. Each state writes its own tests, so this is the one TownRatings grade compared within Pennsylvania, not nationally.

From Pennsylvania state tests taken in spring 2022, when 96% of students in the tested grades sat them, and the class of 2023’s four-year graduation rate, as reported to the U.S. Department of Education.
