Summary:
The Caldwell Exempted Village school district in Ohio consists of two schools - Caldwell Elementary School and Caldwell High School. While the district as a whole is ranked 544 out of 828 districts in Ohio with a 2-star rating, the elementary school stands out as a strong performer, particularly in science and math, outperforming the state averages in many grade levels and subject areas.
Caldwell Elementary School has consistently high test scores, with 69.2% and 73.8% of 5th and 8th graders proficient or better in science, compared to state averages of 63.4% and 63%. In math, the elementary school outperforms the state in 3rd-5th grades, but struggles in 6th-8th grades. Conversely, Caldwell High School has lower test scores than the state averages in most end-of-course exams, except for Algebra I. However, the high school boasts a strong 96% four-year graduation rate, a positive indicator of student success.
Both schools face challenges, with relatively high chronic absenteeism rates around 25%, an area for potential improvement. Additionally, the significant difference in test scores between the elementary and high school suggests a need to examine the curriculum and instructional practices as students transition from one level to the next. The Caldwell Exempted Village district as a whole may have room for improvement, even with the strong performance of the elementary school.
