Summary

Wogaman Middle School is a public middle school in Dayton, Ohio, serving 376 students in grades 7-8. The school is part of the Dayton City School District, which is ranked 707 out of 828 districts in the state and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger. Wogaman Middle School has consistently ranked among the lowest-performing middle schools in Ohio, with a ranking between 969 and 1032 out of over 1,000 middle schools in the state.

Wogaman Middle School faces significant challenges, including extremely high chronic absenteeism rates ranging from 44.5% to 64.3% over the past few years, which are significantly higher than the Dayton City and state averages. Academically, the school's students perform poorly on state assessments compared to the Dayton City and Ohio averages. For example, in the 2024-2025 school year, only 4.2% of 7th-grade students were proficient or better in Mathematics, compared to 16.1% for Dayton City and 50% for the state. The school also struggles to effectively serve its diverse student population, ranking in the bottom 5-10% of Ohio middle schools for African American, English Language Learner, and low-socioeconomic status student groups.

Interestingly, Wogaman Middle School performs significantly worse than other nearby middle schools, such as Wright Brothers Middle School and Edwin Joel Brown Middle School, which are also part of the Dayton City School District. These nearby schools have higher academic proficiency rates and lower chronic absenteeism. Despite the school's challenges, Wogaman Middle School has a relatively low student-teacher ratio, suggesting that the school's struggles are not due to overcrowding or an inability to provide individual attention to students.
