North Baltimore Local

The North Baltimore Local school district in Ohio consists of 3 schools: 1 elementary, 1 middle, and 1 high school. The data reveals that North Baltimore High School is a standout, ranking 292 out of 855 Ohio high schools and earning a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger. The school boasts an impressive 97.4% four-year graduation rate and strong performance on state tests, particularly in American Government, Biology, and English II. In contrast, North Baltimore Middle School had mixed results, with some grades performing above the state average and others below, suggesting potential areas for improvement.

E.A. Powell Elementary School also stands out, outperforming the state average on 5th grade science tests and maintaining relatively high proficiency rates in math and English language arts across grades 3-6. However, all three schools in the district struggle with high chronic absenteeism rates, exceeding the state average by a significant margin.

The data also reveals notable differences in the schools' student populations and resource allocation. North Baltimore High School serves a predominantly low-income student population, with an extremely high free and reduced lunch rate of 97.6%. Meanwhile, the per-student spending varies, with the high school spending $14,316 per student and the elementary school spending $12,292 per student. These factors may contribute to the observed differences in school performance and highlight the need for further investigation into resource allocation and support for the district's most vulnerable students.
