Summary:
There is only one high school in the Steel Academy district, which is a public charter school serving grades 6-12 with a total enrollment of 135 students. The data shows that Steel Academy is a consistently low-performing school, ranking in the bottom 10-15% of Ohio high schools over the past 3 years and earning a 0-1 star rating out of 5 from SchoolDigger.
The school's 4-year graduation rate is only 36.4%, significantly lower than the state average. Additionally, Steel Academy has a very high chronic absenteeism rate of 63.6% and consistently scores well below the state averages on standardized tests across all subject areas and grade levels. For example, in the 2024-2025 school year, only 7.7% of students were proficient or better in English II, compared to the state average of 60.4%, and 0% were proficient or better in Geometry, compared to the state average of 42.8%.
The data also shows that Steel Academy spends $6,259 per student, which is lower than the state average, and has a student-teacher ratio of 12.2, slightly lower than the state average. These metrics suggest that the school may not be allocating resources effectively to support student learning and achievement. Overall, the data paints a concerning picture of Steel Academy's performance and highlights the urgent need for significant improvements to better serve its students.
