Summary

East Liverpool Junior High is a public middle school serving grades 7-8 in East Liverpool, Ohio, with 308 students. The school is part of the East Liverpool City School District, which is ranked 609 out of 828 districts in Ohio and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

East Liverpool Junior High consistently ranks in the bottom half of Ohio middle schools, with academic performance significantly below state averages across all subjects and grade levels. For example, in 2024-2025, the school's proficiency rates were 35.8% in 7th grade math (vs. 50% state average) and 40.8% in 8th grade English (vs. 54.4% state average). Compared to nearby schools like South Side Middle School and Harding Middle School, which consistently rank in the top 25% of Ohio middle schools, East Liverpool Junior High lags behind significantly.

The school also struggles to support its student subgroups, with lower rankings and proficiency rates for female, male, white, multi-racial, special education, low socioeconomic status, and gifted/talented students compared to state averages. Additionally, East Liverpool Junior High has very high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 34.8% to 43.7% in recent years, significantly above the state average. These factors likely contribute to the school's overall academic underperformance, suggesting the need for comprehensive, data-driven interventions and a closer examination of the systemic issues within the East Liverpool City School District.
