Summary

Heywood Elementary School is a public elementary school serving 281 students in grades PK-5 in Troy, Ohio, which is part of the Troy City School District. While the Troy City district is generally well-performing, ranking 216 out of 828 districts in Ohio, Heywood Elementary faces several challenges that set it apart from nearby schools.

Heywood Elementary has consistently high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 20.6% to 25.6% over the past few years, which is significantly higher than the state average and the rates of nearby schools like Cookson Elementary (20.6%) and Concord Elementary (20.6%). Additionally, Heywood's test scores lag behind the Troy City district and the state averages across various subjects and grade levels, with its 5th-grade science proficiency (44.7%) being much lower than the Troy City (63.8%) and state (63.4%) averages.

Heywood Elementary's student subgroups, such as White students, Special Education students, and Low Socioeconomic Status students, also perform significantly worse than their peers at the state level. For instance, in 2024-2025, Heywood's White students ranked in the bottom 30% of Ohio elementary schools, and its Special Education students ranked in the bottom 20%. This, coupled with the school's very high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch (ranging from 61.68% to 79%), suggests that socioeconomic factors may be playing a significant role in the school's performance. Addressing these challenges through targeted interventions and support could be crucial for improving Heywood Elementary's overall performance and outcomes for its students.
