Summary

Miller Ridge Elementary School is a public elementary school in Middletown, Ohio, serving 383 students in grades PK-5 as part of the Middletown City School District. The school consistently outperforms the district and state averages in academic subjects like science, math, and English language arts, with particularly strong performance among its African American and multi-racial student populations.

While Miller Ridge Elementary excels in many areas, it faces some challenges as well. The school has experienced high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 35.9% to 44.9% in recent years, significantly higher than the state average. Additionally, the school's performance for white students and students with disabilities lags behind, ranking in the bottom 15-20% of Ohio elementary schools. Addressing these areas of concern could help Miller Ridge Elementary School further improve its overall academic outcomes.

Interestingly, Carlisle Primary Elementary School, which is in a different district, consistently achieves higher proficiency rates in mathematics and English language arts compared to Miller Ridge and the Middletown City district. However, Miller Ridge Elementary School's per-student spending of $8,335 is lower than Carlisle Primary's $10,840, and the student-teacher ratio at Miller Ridge is also lower than Carlisle Primary.
