Summary:
The city of Trenton, Ohio is home to four schools that serve students from elementary through high school, all part of the Edgewood City School District. The district's schools include two elementary schools (Edgewood Intermediate School and Edgewood Primary School), one middle school (Edgewood Middle School), and one high school (Edgewood High School).
Among the district's schools, Edgewood Intermediate School stands out for its relatively strong academic performance, with higher proficiency rates than the district and state averages in several subjects, including 5th grade science, 4th grade math, and 5th grade English language arts. Additionally, Edgewood Middle School has a 100% proficiency rate in Algebra I, significantly outpacing the district and state averages, indicating the school's success in preparing students for advanced math coursework.
However, the district as a whole faces some challenges, including a high chronic absenteeism rate of 27.3% across all schools, which likely contributes to the academic struggles observed, particularly in math performance. Additionally, the schools serve a significant population of economically disadvantaged students, with free or reduced-price lunch rates ranging from 42.32% at Edgewood High School to 56.42% at Edgewood Intermediate School, suggesting the need for targeted interventions and support to address the unique needs of this student population.
