Piqua Central Intermediate School

Public Grades 4-6

Summary

Piqua Central Intermediate School is a public middle school serving grades 4-6 in Piqua, Ohio, with an enrollment of 701 students. While the school's test scores on the Ohio State Tests are generally below the state averages across subjects and grade levels, it performs on par with the Piqua City district average.

One area of concern is the school's persistently high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 21.5% to 31.7% in recent years, which is significantly higher than the state average. When compared to nearby middle schools, Piqua Central Intermediate School's performance is generally on par with or slightly below other schools in the Piqua City district, but lags the higher-performing schools in other districts, such as Tippecanoe Middle School and Miami East Junior High School.

However, the school's strong Algebra I proficiency rates, which have been consistently high (96.1% to 96.5%) and exceed the state average, suggest potential areas of focus for improvement. Additionally, the school's higher-than-average spending per student, at $9,441 in 2018-2019, indicates a commitment to supporting student learning and development.
