Schools in South Williamsport Area SD · Lycoming County

Four of Lycoming County's 30 ranked public schools land in the top quartile statewide — a modest but meaningful cluster of standouts across this north-central Pennsylvania county anchored by Williamsport. Montgomery JSHS and Muncy JSHS both reach the 93rd–94th percentile statewide, while Lyter Elementary in Montoursville matches that mark at the elementary level. The county spans eight districts, from larger urban schools in Williamsport to smaller rural programs along the West Branch Susquehanna corridor. Families willing to look beyond the city center will find those top-performing districts — Montgomery and Muncy especially — offer strong English and math outcomes worth serious consideration.
