Summary:
The city of Carey, Ohio is home to two schools: Carey High School and Carey Elementary School, both part of the Carey Exempted Village Schools district. While Carey High School stands out as an academically strong institution, the elementary school performs reasonably well but does not reach the same level of excellence.
Carey High School has consistently ranked in the top 35% of Ohio high schools over the past 3 years, with a strong 97.1% four-year graduation rate and students performing significantly better than the state average on Ohio State Tests across multiple subjects. In contrast, Carey Elementary School ranks in the top 40% of Ohio elementary schools and has student test scores that are generally at or above the state average, but not as dominant as the high school.
The data also reveals some interesting differences between the two schools, such as the higher percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch at the elementary school (52.69%) compared to the high school (34.3%), and a consistent 12.5% chronic absenteeism rate at both schools. These factors may contribute to the performance gap between the two institutions and could be areas for the Carey Exempted Village Schools district to address in order to support student success across all grade levels.
