Northwood Local Schools

Summary:

The Northwood Local Schools district in Ohio consists of three schools: Northwood Elementary School, Northwood High School, and Ranger Online Academy. The district serves students from pre-kindergarten through 12th grade, with a focus on providing a well-rounded education.

Northwood High School stands out as a strong performer, ranking in the top half of Ohio high schools and achieving a high four-year graduation rate. The school also excels in several end-of-course state tests, particularly in subjects like American Government, American History, and English II. In contrast, Northwood Elementary School outperforms the state average on 5th and 6th-grade state tests, including Science, Mathematics, and English Language Arts, and maintains a consistent 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

While the district as a whole appears to be performing at a relatively consistent level, there are areas for improvement. Northwood High School has a very high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a high level of economic disadvantage, and Northwood Elementary School has a higher-than-average chronic absenteeism rate. Additionally, the small enrollment and high chronic absenteeism rate at Ranger Online Academy suggest that the virtual school model may be struggling to engage and support its students effectively.
