Summary

Lacroft Elementary School is a public elementary school serving 335 students in grades K-4 in East Liverpool, Ohio, which is part of the East Liverpool City School District. Despite being part of the same district, Lacroft Elementary has consistently underperformed compared to nearby schools like North Elementary, which has a higher 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Lacroft Elementary faces significant challenges, including very high chronic absenteeism rates ranging from 36.1% to 43.7% over the past few years, which is much higher than the state average and nearby schools. The school's test scores on the Ohio State Tests are also consistently below the state and district averages, with only 50% of 3rd graders proficient in English Language Arts compared to the state average of 61.3%, and just 35% of 4th graders proficient in math compared to the state's 69.1%. Additionally, Lacroft Elementary struggles to effectively serve certain student subgroups, with its rankings for White students, disabled students, and low-socioeconomic status students all in the bottom 25% of Ohio elementary schools.

While Lacroft Elementary's per-student spending of $10,554 is higher than the state average, this suggests that funding alone may not be the primary driver of the school's challenges. Addressing the root causes of chronic absenteeism and implementing targeted interventions to support disadvantaged student populations could be key levers for improving overall student achievement at the school. By learning from the successful practices of higher-performing nearby schools like North Elementary, Lacroft Elementary may be able to make meaningful progress in addressing its significant performance and equity issues.
