2 Main Line public school districts named top 5 in Pennsylvania, but Allegheny County dominates list
Southwestern Pennsylvania schools dominated a statewide ranking of public school districts published this month, but a few in the Philadelphia area made the top 10.
The Pittsburgh Business Times recently published its 2025 School Guide, which ranks districts based on the three most recent years of scores on the PSSA and Keystone Exams standardized tests. And in the past year, the Top 5 have maintained their standards of excellence — and retained their spots on the list for the second year in a row.
Fox Chapel Area School District in Allegheny County topped the list once again, per PBT. Placing second was the Upper St. Clair School District, while Kobe Bryant's alma mater, Lower Merion, came in third.
Radnor Township School District in Delaware County and Peters Township School District in Washington County rounded out the leaders.
Allegheny County had more districts in the top 10 than any other county.

Avanti Feeds Ltd (BOM:512573) Q4 2025 Earnings Call Highlights: Strong Revenue Growth Amid ...
Release Date: June 07, 2025 For the complete transcript of the earnings call, please refer to the full earnings call transcript. Avanti Feeds Ltd (BOM:512573) reported a significant increase in gross income for Q4 FY25, reaching 1,435 crores, up from 1,320 crores in Q4 FY24, marking an 8.7% increase. The company's PBT for Q4 FY25 increased by 40% compared to Q4 FY24, driven by higher revenue and reduced raw material costs. The shrimp exports for FY25 increased by 7.5% compared to FY24, with expectations to reach 17,000 MT in FY26. The company is diversifying its market presence by expanding into other regions like Japan and the EU to reduce dependency on the US market. Avanti Feeds Ltd's pet care division has successfully launched its cat food product, with plans to introduce dog food, indicating potential growth in a new market segment. The company faces challenges from fluctuating raw material prices, particularly for fishmeal and soybean meal, which can impact profitability. The imposition of countervailing duties and reciprocal tariffs by the US has affected the profitability of shrimp exports. Despite increased sales, the PBT for the shrimp processing division decreased due to higher ocean freight rates and depreciation from new plant investments. The company's reliance on the US market, which accounts for a significant portion of its shrimp exports, exposes it to geopolitical and trade-related risks. The pet care division is currently in its initial stages, with high promotional and brand establishment costs, which may impact short-term profitability. Warning!

(Unidentified_8) Q: What are the expectations for Q1 margins, given that Q1 is traditionally strong for Avanti Feeds? A: The company expects to maintain profitability levels similar to last year, assuming raw material prices remain stable.
