Summary

Asbury Elementary School is a public elementary school in Columbus, Ohio, serving 457 students in grades K-5. The school is part of the Groveport Madison Local School District, which is ranked 576 out of 828 districts in the state and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Asbury Elementary faces several challenges, including consistently high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 25.6% to 36.4% over the past few years, which is significantly higher than the state average and the rates of nearby schools like Madison Elementary (30.7%) and Dunloe Elementary (30.7%). Academically, the school's proficiency rates on Ohio state tests are generally lower than the state and district averages, with particular challenges in 5th grade science (26.6%), 3rd grade math (69.2%), and 5th grade math (20.6%).

Additionally, Asbury Elementary's performance varies significantly across different student subgroups, with its African American students performing relatively well but its Hispanic and White students performing much worse, ranking in the bottom 20% and bottom 10% of Ohio elementary schools, respectively. The school's spending per student ($8,813 in 2018-2019) is also lower than the nearby Madison Elementary ($10,787) and Dunloe Elementary ($9,671) schools, which may contribute to the academic challenges faced by the school.
