Summary

Shadyside High School is a public high school located in Shadyside, Ohio, serving grades 7-12 with a total enrollment of 296 students. The school is part of the Shadyside Local District, which is ranked 156 out of 828 districts in Ohio and has a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Shadyside High School has consistently high graduation rates, with a 98.2% four-year graduation rate in the 2024-2025 school year, significantly higher than the state average. The school's students also perform well on state assessments, with many subject areas exceeding the state and local district averages. For example, in 2024-2025, the school had 94.1% proficiency in 7th grade English Language Arts, compared to the state average of 62.9%. However, the school has experienced fluctuations in chronic absenteeism, with rates ranging from 27.7% to 42.7% in recent years, which is an area the school could focus on improving.

Compared to nearby schools, Beallsville High School, which is part of the same district, has significantly lower proficiency rates in several subject areas. Despite Shadyside High School's strong performance in many areas, its statewide ranking has declined in recent years, from a high of 275 out of 855 Ohio high schools in 2024-2025 to a low of 592 out of 819 in 2020-2021. This suggests that the school may be facing challenges that are impacting its overall performance compared to other schools in the state. Additionally, the varying performance of different student subgroups at Shadyside High School suggests that the school may need to focus on addressing the needs of specific student populations to ensure equitable outcomes.
