Summary:
The city of Frankfort, Ohio is home to three public schools that serve students from elementary through high school: Adena Elementary School, Adena Middle School, and Adena High School. These schools are part of the Adena Local School District, which is ranked 524 out of 835 districts in Ohio and rated 2 out of 5 stars, indicating the district is performing below average compared to others in the state.
Adena Elementary School stands out for having an extremely high percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch at 99.39%, suggesting significant economic challenges in the community. In contrast, the middle and high schools lag behind state averages in academic performance, particularly in mathematics, with only 37.2% of 6th graders at Adena Middle School proficient in math compared to the state average of 50%. Chronic absenteeism is also a concern, reaching 27.0% at Adena High School, which is likely contributing to the lower academic outcomes.
Despite the challenges, there are some bright spots, such as Adena High School's 90.3% four-year graduation rate. However, the data indicates a significant gap in performance between the elementary school and the middle/high schools, suggesting potential issues with curriculum alignment or instructional quality as students progress through the grade levels. Addressing attendance issues, allocating resources effectively, and implementing targeted interventions may be necessary to improve outcomes for students across the Adena Local School District.
