Middle Schools in Wilmington City

Wilmington City, Ohio has only one middle school, Rodger O. Borror Middle School, which serves students in grades 6-8. The school's performance has consistently ranked in the bottom half of Ohio middle schools, with a 2 out of 5 star rating from SchoolDigger over the past few years.

Rodger O. Borror Middle School's test scores in core subjects like Math, English Language Arts, and Science generally lag behind the state averages, with some exceptions. While 8th grade Science proficiency and 7th grade English Language Arts proficiency exceed the state averages, the school's overall academic performance is below par. The school has a high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a relatively low-income student population, and its per-student spending is below the state average.

One bright spot for the school is its exceptional performance in Algebra I, with 91.2% of students proficient or better, significantly higher than the state average of 59.4%. However, the school also has a relatively high chronic absenteeism rate of 24.4%, which is likely a contributing factor to its overall academic challenges. While the school's performance is generally below the state averages, it is often on par with or slightly better than the Wilmington City School District's overall performance, suggesting opportunities for improvement in the school's academic programs, student engagement, and overall educational outcomes.
