Summary

Mt Healthy Junior High School is a public middle school serving 458 students in grades 7-8 in the Mt Healthy City School District in Cincinnati, Ohio. The school has consistently ranked in the bottom 20% of Ohio middle schools over the past 10 years, with a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Mt Healthy Junior High School faces significant challenges, including extremely high chronic absenteeism rates ranging from 48.2% to 58.6% over the past few years, which is significantly higher than the state average and the rates of nearby schools like Creekside Middle School (20.1%) and Wyoming Middle School (12.5%). The school's students also perform poorly on state assessments, with only 11.7% of 7th graders proficient in math and 21% of 8th graders proficient in English Language Arts, compared to state averages of 50% and 54.4%, respectively.

Despite spending more per student ($8,446) than nearby schools like Creekside Middle School ($6,600) and Pleasant Run Middle School ($6,338), Mt Healthy Junior High School is not achieving commensurate academic results, indicating a potential need to re-evaluate the school's resource allocation and spending priorities. The school also struggles to support the academic achievement of various student subgroups, ranking in the bottom 20% of Ohio middle schools for White, Multi-racial, and Low Socioeconomic Status students.
