Summary

Ripley Union Lewis Huntington Elementary School is a public elementary school serving 378 students in grades K-6 in Ripley, Ohio. The school is part of the Ripley-Union-Lewis-Huntington Local School District, which is ranked 528 out of 828 districts in the state and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Academically, Ripley Union Lewis Huntington Elementary School has consistently ranked in the middle-to-lower range of Ohio elementary schools, with a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger. The school's performance on state tests is mixed compared to state and local averages, with some grade levels and subjects exceeding the state average, while others fall below. Compared to nearby schools like Sardinia Elementary, Felicity-Franklin Local Elementary, and Georgetown Elementary, Ripley Union Lewis Huntington generally performs on par or slightly below these higher-ranked schools.

The school has a higher percentage of low socioeconomic status (SES) students, and its performance for disabled students and male students has been uneven in recent years. Chronic absenteeism has also been a concern, with rates ranging from 14.5% to 25.1%, which are higher than the state average. While the school's per-student spending is slightly higher than nearby schools, it's unclear if this has translated to improved academic outcomes. Overall, Ripley Union Lewis Huntington Elementary School faces some challenges, but also shows strengths in supporting its low-SES student population, and continued focus on addressing areas of weakness could help drive better outcomes for its students.
