Summary:

The Academy of Arts and Technology is the only school in this data set, serving 151 students in grades K–8 in Marion, Ohio. Because it operates as its own district, the Academy of Arts and Technology district listing covers just this one campus. Enrollment is small — roughly 17 students per grade level — and the student-teacher ratio is 10.5 for 2024–2025. Chronic absenteeism stands at 46.2% for 2025–2026, meaning nearly half of students were chronically absent. Free and reduced-price lunch data is not reported, so the socioeconomic context behind these figures is unclear.

On state rankings, the school sits near the bottom. The district summary shows a rank of 734 of 773, the 5th percentile, with 0 stars. The school-level rank history is slightly more favorable but still low: 1490 of 1577 (6th percentile, 0 stars) in 2023–2024, improving to 1367 of 1558 (12th percentile, 1 star) in 2024–2025, then 1393 of 1560 (11th percentile, 1 star) in 2025–2026. Test results are below the state in all 11 reported assessments across Mathematics, English Language Arts, and Science. Gaps range from 19.6 points (3rd-grade ELA, 41.7% vs. 61.3%) to 61.9 points (4th-grade ELA, 0% vs. 61.9%).

The lowest results are in 4th-grade ELA (0% vs. 61.9%), 6th-grade math (6.7% vs. 51.9%), 4th-grade math (18.2% vs. 69.1%), and 5th-grade science (20% vs. 62.7%). The school's best performance is 41.7% in both 3rd-grade math and 3rd-grade ELA in 2024–2025 — still below the lowest state benchmark in the file (48.6%). Averaged across all 11 tests, the school reports about 25.6% proficient versus a state average of 60.6%. Math trends slightly lower than ELA in both years. The one bright spot is the move from 0 stars in 2023–2024 to 1 star since, though the school remains in the bottom fraction of Ohio schools.
