Schools in Sullivan County

Sullivan County runs on a single district serving the entire county, which means families here are choosing between just two public schools rather than navigating competing systems. Both schools are based in Laporte, and while neither ranks among Pennsylvania's top performers — Sullivan Co JSHS sits at the 49th percentile statewide and Sullivan Co Elementary at the 38th — the consolidated structure keeps options straightforward. For families weighing rural north-central Pennsylvania, the picture is clear-eyed: small-scale schooling with modest statewide standing, where the tradeoffs of a remote, tightly unified district are simply part of the equation.
