Philadelphia public-school enrollment, 2014–2026

Total public-school enrollment has held near 200,000. District-run enrollment has declined over the decade while charter enrollment has grown — a shift worth seeing alongside any single school.

Who teaches in Philadelphia? Teaching staff vs. student body

Research links teacher\u2013student racial match to attendance, discipline and achievement. This is a District-wide comparison \u2014 not specific to any one school \u2014 between the people who teach in Philadelphia\u2019s public schools and the students they serve.

School names, addresses, sectors, grade spans and locations come from the School District of Philadelphia master list. Performance, growth, graduation, attendance, demographics, enrollment, suspensions, admissions and per-pupil figures are real official data — primarily the 2024–25 Future Ready PA Index and PSSA/Keystone results, with enrollment and suspensions from School District of Philadelphia open data. Some fields are intentionally blank where the state suppresses small counts, where a measure doesn't apply (such as graduation at elementary schools), for science (under a 2024–25 federal assessment waiver), and for a few alternative programs the state does not report separately. On each report card the bar is the school's value, the vertical tick is the statewide average, and the caret is Pennsylvania's 2033 goal (or standard). Academic growth (PVAAS) reflects year-to-year progress, not where students start; 70 = meets the statewide standard. Four- and five-year graduation are shown for high schools. Transportation is a straight-line estimate of the 1.5-mile rule, not an official eligibility determination.

Data sources & methodology

Every figure on this site comes from official public records. We do not collect, survey, or estimate student data ourselves — we only organize what Pennsylvania and the School District of Philadelphia already publish.

Future Ready PA Index — Pennsylvania Department of Education (SY 2024–25). Proficiency, academic growth (PVAAS), regular attendance, graduation, career-readiness, and English-learner growth; plus School Fast Facts for enrollment and demographics. futurereadypa.org
PSSA & Keystone assessment results — Pennsylvania Department of Education and the School District of Philadelphia (2018, 2019, and 2022 through 2025). State test proficiency by subject and grade, including Keystone Biology, used for current scores and the multi-year proficiency trend. philasd.org open data
Enrollment, demographics & school directory — School District of Philadelphia Open Data (SY 2024–25 and 2025–26). Enrollment counts and year-over-year change, race/ethnicity, English-learner and special-education shares, plus school names, addresses, grade spans, sectors, catchments, and locations. opendataphilly.org
Teacher staffing, attendance & vacancies — School District of Philadelphia Open Data. Classroom-teacher counts and year-over-year retention are derived from the SDP Employee Information extracts (April snapshots, 2023–2026). Teacher attendance is the share of a school\u2019s teachers present at least 90% of days (school years ending 2024 and 2025). Staff vacancies are reported District-wide only (not by school): the District reported about 1,050 unfilled positions in October 2024 and about 940 in January 2025 across all roles. Staff race/ethnicity (used in the District-wide “who teaches in Philadelphia” comparison) is reported only District-wide, not by school. philasd.org open data

School Selection & catchment data — School District of Philadelphia. Applications and offers at criteria-based and citywide admission schools (SY 2024–25 / 2025–26), and neighborhood-catchment retention rates (2016–17 through 2025–26) used for the retention trend. opendataphilly.org

Transportation & eligibility — School District of Philadelphia transportation rules with SEPTA service data (2025–26). Yellow-bus and SEPTA fare-card eligibility is computed from each school's sector, admission type, and grade span under District rules (grades 1–6 living 1.5+ miles from the assigned school; SEPTA fare card for grades 7–12 living 1.5+ miles). Eligibility for out-of-catchment choices can differ — confirm with the District. philasd.org/transportation

Notes: Performance reflects the 2024–25 school year; suspension figures are from the 2023–24 School Progress Report (the most recent published) and enrollment change compares 2024–25 to 2025–26 — additional years will be added over time. Transportation eligibility is a straight-line estimate of the District's 1.5-mile rule, not an official determination. Science reflects Keystone Biology where reported; statewide PSSA science was under a federal assessment waiver in 2024–25. A small number of alternative programs are not separately reported by the state, so their performance fields are intentionally blank.
