Shelby City

The Shelby City school district in Ohio consists of three schools: Shelby Elementary School, Shelby High School, and Shelby Middle School. The district serves a predominantly white student population, with all three schools having over 94% white enrollment. While the schools generally perform well academically, with standout results in mathematics and high school subjects, the district may want to address the lack of racial diversity and the high chronic absenteeism rate at the high school level.

Shelby High School is the district's top performer, ranking 257 out of 864 Ohio high schools and earning a 4-star rating. The school boasts an impressive 94.1% four-year graduation rate and strong performance on state tests, particularly in American History and Biology. In contrast, Shelby Middle School stands out for its exceptional mathematics performance, with 78.8% of 7th graders and 78.7% of 8th graders proficient or better on state tests, significantly higher than the state averages.

While the district's schools generally perform well, there are some areas of concern. Shelby High School has the highest chronic absenteeism rate at 19.6%, which is significantly higher than the other two schools and the state average. Additionally, all three schools have a very high percentage of white students, ranging from 94.59% to 95%, suggesting a lack of racial diversity that the Shelby City district may want to address.
