Summary:
Cypress High School is a public charter high school located in Mansfield, Ohio, serving 176 students in grades 9-12. Despite being situated in the Mansfield area, the school's performance lags significantly behind nearby high schools, raising concerns about the quality of education it provides.
Cypress High School consistently ranks in the bottom quartile of Ohio high schools, with low proficiency rates on state assessments that are well below the state averages. The school's four-year graduation rates, ranging from 51.3% to 66.7%, are also alarmingly low, well below the state average. Additionally, Cypress High School has an extremely high chronic absenteeism rate, more than double the state average, indicating a significant issue with student engagement and attendance. These challenges are not reflected in the nearby high schools, such as Crestview High School, Crestline High School, Lucas High School, Lexington High School, Ontario High School, and Madison High School, which generally have higher academic proficiency rates, graduation rates, and lower chronic absenteeism.
The consistent underperformance of student subgroups, such as female students, male students, White students, and students with low socioeconomic status, at Cypress High School raises concerns about equity and the school's ability to provide equitable educational opportunities for all students. Addressing these issues will require a comprehensive approach that addresses the root causes of the school's underperformance, with a focus on improving student attendance, academic support, and equitable access to educational resources.
