Summary

Mifflin High School is a public high school in Columbus, Ohio, serving 728 students in grades 9-12. The school is part of the Columbus City Schools District, which is ranked 688 out of 828 districts in the state and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger. Mifflin High School has consistently ranked in the bottom quarter of Ohio high schools over the past decade.

Mifflin High School faces significant challenges, with low four-year graduation rates ranging from 68.6% to 83.3%, much higher than the state average. The school also has extremely high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 52.6% to 79.4%, which are much higher than the state and district averages. Academically, Mifflin High School students perform poorly on state assessments, with proficiency rates well below the state and district averages across all subject areas. The school struggles to effectively serve its diverse student population, ranking in the bottom quarter of Ohio high schools for most student subgroups.

While the nearby district-run schools, such as Northland High School and Columbus International High School, also perform poorly, some of the local charter schools, like Horizon Science Academy Columbus and The Charles School at Ohio Dominican University, have significantly higher test scores, graduation rates, and lower chronic absenteeism, despite serving similar student populations. This suggests that alternative educational models may be more effective in addressing the systemic challenges facing Mifflin High School and other schools in the Columbus City Schools District.
