Elementary Schools in Westerville City

Summary:

The Westerville City school district in Ohio is home to 16 elementary schools serving students from kindergarten through 5th grade. The data reveals a mix of high-performing and lower-performing schools, with several standout institutions leading the way.

Alcott Elementary School, Emerson Elementary School, and Whittier Elementary School consistently rank among the top elementary schools in Ohio, with exceptional test scores and statewide rankings in the top 380 or better. In contrast, schools like Hawthorne Elementary, Minerva France Elementary, and Pointview Elementary struggle with proficiency rates well below the district and state averages.

The data also reveals significant variations in key metrics across the district, such as chronic absenteeism rates, free and reduced lunch percentages, and spending per student. These factors may contribute to the performance gaps observed between the schools. While the high-performing schools have maintained their strong results over time, the district may benefit from targeted interventions and support to help improve outcomes at the lower-performing institutions.
