Summary

Sharpsburg Elementary is a public elementary school located in Norwood, Ohio, serving grades PK-5 with a student population of 258. The school is part of the Norwood City School District, which is ranked 435 out of 828 districts in Ohio and is rated 2 stars out of 5 by SchoolDigger.

Sharpsburg Elementary has consistently ranked in the top half of Ohio elementary schools, with a ranking between 643-934 out of 1,558-1,610 schools over the past 5 school years. The school's performance on Ohio State Tests is generally on par or slightly above the Norwood City and Ohio state averages across subjects and grade levels. Notably, Sharpsburg Elementary stands out in its performance for low socioeconomic status (SES) students, ranking in the top 18-27% of Ohio elementary schools for this subgroup over the past 3 years. However, the school has a relatively high chronic absenteeism rate, ranging from 33.2% to 36.3% over the past 3 school years, which is higher than the state average.

Compared to other schools in the Norwood City district, Williams Avenue Elementary and Norwood View Elementary, Sharpsburg Elementary generally outperforms them in terms of state test proficiency rates and overall state rankings. However, the nearby Alliance Academy of Cincinnati, a charter school, has a higher percentage of students proficient in math and English language arts compared to Sharpsburg Elementary. While Sharpsburg Elementary performs well for its low-SES students, there may be opportunities to further support and challenge its higher-performing students to maximize their potential.
