School Overview

Ross Elementary sits in Lancaster city, a place with deep roots, a thriving arts scene, and a community that takes pride in its diversity — but like many urban schools, it faces real academic challenges, with scores in the lower quarter statewide. Families who choose Ross tend to be committed to their neighborhood and invested in being part of a school community that's working hard to grow. For those drawn to Lancaster's walkable streets, farmers markets, and tight-knit feel, this can be a meaningful place to put down roots while staying engaged in their child's education.
