Demographics
The Ferndale Area School District is a small suburban district in the southwest portion of Pennsylvania's Cambria County. We are the only district in the Commonwealth serving families from five noncontiguous municipalities.
Our district spans 6.2 square miles, encompassing the communities of Brownstown Borough, Dale Borough, Ferndale Borough, Lorain Borough, and Middle Taylor Township. Because of our unique geographical structure, our approximately 725 students bring with them a range of family and community experiences. The district is made up of two schools. The elementary building serves grades K4 through 6. The junior-senior high school buildings serve grades 7 through 12.
