Summary

Rock Creek Elementary School is a public elementary school serving 305 students in grades K-6 in Rock Creek, Ohio, which is part of the Jefferson Area Local school district. The school has several notable strengths, including consistently strong performance for its special education students, ranking in the top 25-40% of Ohio elementary schools in recent years. Additionally, Rock Creek Elementary has shown impressive mathematics proficiency, with 4th and 5th-grade students outperforming the state and district averages.

However, the school faces some challenges, such as a concerning increase in chronic absenteeism, rising from 16.7% in 2023-2024 to 25.6% in 2022-2023, which is significantly higher than the state average. The school's performance for low socioeconomic status students has also been lower than its overall performance, ranking in the bottom 50% of Ohio elementary schools in recent years. When compared to nearby schools, Rock Creek Elementary generally performs on par or slightly better in most subject areas and grade levels, but lags behind some of its neighbors, particularly Austinburg Elementary and South Elementary, in English Language Arts and science proficiency.

Notably, Rock Creek Elementary's statewide ranking has steadily declined from 489 out of 1,636 Ohio elementary schools in 2017-2018 to 772 out of 1,558 in 2024-2025, suggesting the need for the school to identify and address the root causes of this trend to improve overall academic performance. Addressing the challenges of chronic absenteeism, socioeconomic achievement gaps, and the declining performance trend should be a priority for the school and district to ensure all students receive a high-quality education.
