Named one of 100 best school districts in the nation by Offspring: The Magazine of Smart Parenting, the General McLane School District educates and serves students from a 117 square mile area at four schools. The district currently employs 172 teachers and an additional 151 employees which include transportation, custodial, maintenance, clerical and administrative staff. While the geographic area is classified as rural, the presence of Edinboro University in the district contributes to a unique student body. Approximately 8.5% of the student body is classified according to Pennsylvania standards as mentally gifted (Intelligence Quotient equal to 130 or greater). This compares to a national incidence of 2%. Approximately 73% of students pursue a four-year college program after graduation while another 12-15% pursue two-year programs. General McLane students have consistently scored above the state and national average on the Scholastic Aptitude Test. All this makes for a stimulating and challenging environment in which to learn.
