Summary

Ashland County Community Academy is a small public charter high school serving grades 7-12 in Ashland, Ohio. With just 87 students, the school has consistently ranked in the bottom 10-15% of Ohio high schools over the past several years, earning a 0-1 star rating from SchoolDigger.

The school faces significant challenges compared to the nearby Ashland City and other public high schools in the area. Ashland High School and schools like Mansfield Senior, Lucas, Northwestern, Madison, and Crestview all have much higher graduation rates, typically above 90%, compared to Ashland County Community Academy's low 4-year graduation rates ranging from 55% to 76.5% over the past 5 years.

The school also struggles with extremely high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 31.1% to 85.1% over the past 5 years, far exceeding the lower rates at the nearby public high schools. Additionally, Ashland County Community Academy students perform significantly below state averages on Ohio's End of Course exams across all subject areas, including American Government, American History, Biology, English II, and Math. Addressing the root causes of these issues, such as instructional quality, student engagement, and support for high-need populations, will be crucial for the school to improve student outcomes and better serve the local community.
