Summary

Riverview Elementary School is a public elementary school located in Hamilton, Ohio, serving grades PK-6 with a total enrollment of 648 students. The school is part of the Hamilton City School District, which is ranked 527 out of 828 districts in Ohio and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Riverview Elementary School has consistently underperformed compared to the state and district averages on Ohio State Tests across all grade levels and subjects, with proficiency rates ranging from 28.8% to 55.9% in English Language Arts and 29% to 55.9% in Mathematics, significantly lower than the state and district averages. The school's performance is particularly weak in Science, with only 36% of 5th-grade students proficient or better, compared to the state average of 63.4%. Additionally, Riverview Elementary School has a very high chronic absenteeism rate, ranging from 26.8% to 35.4% over the past few years, significantly higher than the state and district averages.

While the nearby schools, such as Ridgeway Elementary, Fairfield West Elementary, and Brookwood Elementary, generally outperform Riverview Elementary School across various academic metrics, the school's relatively low spending per student and student-teacher ratio suggest that resources may not be the primary driver of the school's underperformance. The school's performance for certain student subgroups, such as African American and Hispanic students, indicates that there may be opportunities to learn from the school's relative strengths in these areas and apply those strategies to improve overall student outcomes.
