Summary:
The Austintown Local Schools district in Ohio comprises 4 schools: 2 elementary schools, 1 middle school, and 1 high school. The district has demonstrated a mix of strong-performing and improving schools, with a focus on equitable resource distribution across its campuses.
Among the standout schools in the district is Austintown Intermediate School, an elementary school that has consistently ranked among the top 20% of Ohio elementary schools in recent years. Its students have excelled on state tests, with over 80% proficiency in math and English language arts. Meanwhile, Fitch High School has shown an improving trend, moving from the top 40% to the top 38% of Ohio high schools over the past few years and maintaining a high 4-year graduation rate of 98%.
Across the district, students have generally performed well on state assessments, often exceeding the state average proficiency rates. The schools also demonstrate equitable resource allocation, with similar per-student spending levels and student-teacher ratios, despite varying student demographics and performance levels. However, the district faces the challenge of addressing high chronic absenteeism rates, which hover around 26.8% across all schools, an area that may require targeted interventions.
