Public Grades 7-8

Summary

Ripley Union Lewis Huntington Junior High School is a public middle school serving grades 7-8 in Ripley, Ohio, with a total enrollment of 109 students. The school is part of the Ripley-Union-Lewis-Huntington Local School District, which is ranked 528 out of 828 districts in Ohio and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

The school faces several challenges, including high chronic absenteeism rates ranging from 17.3% to 25.1% over the past few years, which is significantly higher than the state average. Academically, the school performs above the state average in some subjects like 8th grade Science, but struggles significantly in Mathematics, with only 25-29% of students proficient in 7th and 8th grade, well below the state averages of 50% and 47.6% respectively. Additionally, the school's subgroup performance is a concern, with female, white, and special education students all ranking in the bottom 25% of Ohio middle schools in their respective categories.

Comparing Ripley Union Lewis Huntington Junior High School to its nearby counterparts, Eastern Middle School and Felicity-Franklin Local Middle School, suggests that there may be opportunities to learn from their practices and strategies to improve student outcomes. While Ripley Union Lewis Huntington Junior High School spends more per student than the nearby schools, this higher spending does not seem to translate into better academic performance.
