Summary:
The Southwest Local school district in Ohio is home to three elementary schools: Crosby Elementary School, Miami Whitewater Elementary School, and Harrison Elementary School. These schools serve students from prekindergarten through 5th grade in the local community.
Among the three schools, Crosby Elementary School stands out as the top performer, consistently ranking among the top 5% of elementary schools in Ohio over the past three years. Crosby has maintained a 5-star rating from SchoolDigger and significantly outpaces the district and state averages in test scores across all grade levels and subject areas. In contrast, Miami Whitewater Elementary School and Harrison Elementary School appear to be performing below the district and state averages on many metrics, with lower state rankings and test scores.
Interestingly, the variation in spending per student and student-teacher ratios does not seem to directly correlate with school performance. While Crosby Elementary School spends the most per student, it also has the highest student-teacher ratio. The district-wide performance, as reflected in the Southwest Local averages, suggests there is room for improvement across the board, with the need to address chronic absenteeism and understand the factors driving the performance gaps between the schools.
