Summary:
The East Muskingum Local school district in Ohio is home to four elementary schools serving students from kindergarten through fifth grade. These schools include Larry Miller Intermediate Elementary School, New Concord Elementary School, Perry Elementary School, and Pike Elementary School.
Among the four schools, Larry Miller Intermediate Elementary School stands out as the academic leader, consistently outperforming the state and district averages on state assessments, particularly in 5th grade science and 4th/5th grade math and English language arts. The school is ranked in the top 12% of Ohio elementary schools and has a relatively low chronic absenteeism rate of 14.9%. In contrast, the other three schools in the district, while still performing above the state average, do not match the exceptional results of Larry Miller Intermediate.
Across the district, the schools serve diverse student populations, with free/reduced lunch rates ranging from 26.5% to 47.67%. This suggests potential socioeconomic differences that may impact educational opportunities and resources. Additionally, all four schools share a common challenge of high chronic absenteeism rates, indicating a need for the district to investigate the root causes and implement strategies to improve student attendance.
