Summary

Amity Elementary School is a PK–6 school serving 569 students in the small, close-in Cincinnati suburb of Deer Park, part of the Deer Park Community City district. It ranks 648th of 1,560 Ohio schools — the 58th percentile, or 3 stars — and has stayed between the 56th and 68th percentile every year for a decade. Because Amity is effectively the district's only elementary campus, its test results mirror the district's in nearly every grade, which suggests the district's lower overall rating is being pulled down by its secondary grades rather than by this school.

Compared with nearby schools, Amity stands out most for what it achieves with a higher-poverty student body. About 48% of its students qualify for free or reduced lunch — roughly three times the rate at Blue Ash Elementary School in Sycamore Community City or Madeira Elementary School — yet Amity beats the state in 7 of 9 tested areas. Its third-grade math score (87.3% proficient) edges out two Sycamore elementaries, and its sixth-grade math is 21 points above any other local school that serves sixth graders, including Silverton Elementary School, Reading Elementary School, Woodford Academy, John P. Parker School, Pleasant Ridge Montessori School, and T.C.P. World Academy. Chronic absenteeism has nearly halved in four years, from 28.6% to 15.4%, and it has stayed well below the district's 23.1% every year.

Two weaknesses are worth watching. Students with disabilities rank at the 25th percentile — the school's only 1-star subgroup, down from the 47th percentile two years ago. Fifth-grade math has landed at or near the state average for four straight years, and fourth- and sixth-grade reading are now slightly below the state. The pattern of strong third-grade results fading by fifth grade is the most important thing to ask about, since it suggests the school's early gains are not fully carrying forward as students move up.
