That black Raleigh sports is really nice... is a keeper. If it is working properly, you could easily get $200 in the spring. Knowing where you are from and looking daily on the Allentown and Reading CLs as well as anything for local pickup on ebay, other maybe the women's Ralegh sports will bring you $50-$75 as is, maybe $100 with some TLC. The Skyrider no more than $25-$35 and I am not sure that the little bike is worth your time. On the other hand, it will be a prime candidate for this (https://www.communitybikeworks.org/index.htm) place and there will be a very thankful child.
Nice pickups!

+1 Black Raleigh: $150
+1 White Raleigh: $100-150
I would donate or trade the other two bikes personally.

Your sanity is intact, depending on what you paid and how much time you have toj put into them.
They all look like major cleanup, but no major parts needed. I like 'em all.
