Summary

White Oak Middle School is a public middle school in Cincinnati, Ohio, serving 722 students in grades 6-8. The school is part of the Northwest Local School District, which is ranked 533 out of 828 districts in the state and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

While White Oak Middle School's proficiency rates on Ohio State Tests are generally lower than state averages across all grade levels and subjects, the school stands out for its exceptional performance in Algebra I, with 100% proficiency rates in recent years. However, the school faces challenges, including significant disparities in performance across different student subgroups.

Additionally, the school's chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 32.6% to 36.5% in recent years, are significantly higher than the state average.
