Summary

Roll Hill School is an elementary school in Cincinnati, Ohio, serving 340 students in grades PK-6 as part of the Cincinnati Public Schools district, which is ranked 596 out of 828 districts in the state.

Despite having a relatively low student-teacher ratio, Roll Hill School consistently underperforms compared to the district and state in academic metrics. Only 14.3% of 5th-grade students were proficient or better in Science, compared to 38.7% for the district and 63.4% for the state. The school also faces extremely high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 43.5% to 59.4% over the past few years, significantly higher than the district and state averages. Additionally, the school's performance for specific student subgroups, such as Special Education and Low Socioeconomic Status students, is particularly concerning, ranking in the bottom 20% and 15% of Ohio elementary schools, respectively.

Interestingly, nearby schools in the Cincinnati Public Schools district, such as Parker Woods Montessori School and Westwood School, generally outperform Roll Hill School in academic metrics, suggesting that the challenges faced by Roll Hill School are not necessarily shared by all schools in the district. The school's underperformance does not appear to be due to a lack of funding, as its spending per student is on par with nearby schools. The root causes of Roll Hill School's challenges likely lie in factors beyond just academic instruction, such as student engagement, family support, and socioeconomic factors, which will need to be addressed to improve the school's overall performance and outcomes.
