Middle Schools in Willard City

Summary:

Willard City, Ohio has only one middle school, Willard Middle School, which serves grades 4-8 with a total enrollment of 305 students. The school is ranked 477 out of 1,036 Ohio middle schools and has a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Willard Middle School's performance on state tests is mixed compared to state averages. While the school excels in 7th grade ELA and Algebra I, it lags behind in 8th grade science, 6th and 8th grade math, and 6th grade ELA. The school's chronic absenteeism rate of 24.9% is quite high, indicating a potential area for improvement. The school serves a high-need population, with two-thirds of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, which may contribute to some of the academic challenges the school faces.

The school's spending per student is slightly below the state average at $8,919 per student, and the student-teacher ratio of 15.7 to 1 suggests the school may have adequate staffing resources, though this does not necessarily translate to better academic outcomes. Overall, Willard City has one middle school that appears to be a relatively average-performing school in Ohio, with some areas of strength and some areas that could use improvement.
