Summary:
The city of Williamsport, Ohio, is home to three public schools serving students from elementary through high school: Westfall Elementary School, Westfall High School, and Westfall Middle School. These schools are part of the Westfall Local school district and demonstrate a mix of academic strengths and areas for improvement.
Among the standout schools, Westfall Elementary School consistently ranks in the top half of Ohio elementary schools, with a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger. The school's students excel on state tests, with 4th and 5th-graders exceeding the state average in math and English language arts. In contrast, Westfall High School is the lowest-ranked of the three, sitting at 547 out of 855 Ohio high schools. However, Westfall Middle School stands out for its impressive 100% proficiency rate on Algebra I end-of-course exams, significantly outperforming the district and state averages.
Across the district, the schools face challenges with chronic absenteeism, with all three reporting a rate of 13.2%, which is higher than the state average. Additionally, a significant percentage of students at these schools receive free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 38.72% at Westfall High School to 64.2% at Westfall Middle School, suggesting the district may need to address socioeconomic factors that could be impacting student performance.
