Summary

Volney Rogers School is an elementary school located in Youngstown, Ohio, serving grades PK-5 with a total enrollment of 332 students. The school is part of the Youngstown City School District, which is ranked 703 out of 828 districts in Ohio and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Volney Rogers School faces significant challenges, including consistently high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 50.6% to 59.3% over the past few years, which is significantly higher than the state and district averages. The school's test scores are also consistently lower than the state and district averages across all grade levels and subject areas. For example, in the 2024-2025 school year, only 11.9% of 5th-grade students were proficient or better in Science, compared to 30% for the Youngstown City School District and 63.4% for the state.

While Kirkmere School and Taft Elementary School, which are also part of the Youngstown City School District, have relatively higher performance, Volney Rogers School's ranking among Ohio elementary schools has steadily declined over the past few years, from 1,253rd out of 1,610 schools in 2020-2021 to 1,327th out of 1,558 schools in 2024-2025. This suggests that the school's performance is not improving and may be falling further behind the state average.
