Summary

Newton Falls Junior High School is a public middle school serving grades 6-8 in Newton Falls, Ohio, with 224 students. The school is part of the Newton Falls Exempted Village School District, which is ranked 461 out of 828 districts in Ohio and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Newton Falls Junior High School faces significant challenges, particularly in terms of chronic absenteeism, which has consistently been much higher than the state average and the rates of nearby schools like Howland Middle School and Western Reserve Middle School. The school's test scores are also generally below the state and district averages across all grade levels and subjects, with proficiency rates in Math and English Language Arts 10-20 percentage points lower than the state averages. Additionally, the school struggles to serve certain student subgroups effectively, with its rankings for female, male, and white students in the bottom half of Ohio middle schools, and its ranking for special education students in the bottom third.

While Newton Falls Junior High School's overall performance is below average, the nearby Howland Middle School and Western Reserve Middle School are performing significantly better, ranking in the top 25% and top 10% of Ohio middle schools, respectively. This suggests that the challenges faced by Newton Falls Junior High School are not necessarily shared by all schools in the region. Additionally, the school's spending per student, at $7,409, is lower than the nearby schools, which range from $8,332 to $10,755 per student.
