Afton EL Sch

Afton Elementary School serves 502 students in kindergarten through fifth grade in Yardley, Pennsylvania. It earns a composite score of 9.1 out of 10 — rated Exceptional — driven by an academic score of 9.4 and a growth score of 8.8. Those numbers put Afton in rare company: the school ranks 55th out of 2,842 public schools statewide, outperforming 98% of all Pennsylvania schools.

That places it among the top two percent in a state with nearly three thousand public schools. The student-teacher ratio of 10.9 to 1 keeps classes small, giving each student more direct access to instruction across all five grade levels. An academic score of 9.4 reflects consistently high proficiency in core subjects.

The 8.8 growth score tells a sharper story — students here are not just achieving at a high level, they are advancing faster than their peers statewide, year over year. Afton ranks second out of seven public schools in Yardley and places 47th out of 1,625 elementary schools across Pennsylvania — a tier very few schools reach or sustain. For families comparing elementary options in the Yardley area, Afton's performance data puts it at the short end of any shortlist.
