Conotton Valley High School

Summary:

Conotton Valley High School is a public high school located in Bowerston, Ohio, serving grades 6-12 with a total enrollment of 225 students. The school is part of the Conotton Valley Union Local District, which is ranked 227 out of 839 districts in Ohio and has a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Conotton Valley High School has a highly homogeneous student population, with over 99% of students identifying as White, which is significantly different from the racial diversity seen in some nearby schools, such as Buckeye Career Center. The school has shown a mixed academic performance, performing well above the state average in some subject areas but struggling in others. While the school has maintained a strong four-year graduation rate, it has experienced concerning rates of chronic absenteeism, ranging from 14.4% to 46.3% over the past few years. Additionally, the school has a significant population of low-socioeconomic-status students, with 40.89% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch in the 2022-2023 school year.

When compared to nearby schools like Harrison Career Center and Buckeye Career Center, Conotton Valley High School stands out for its more homogeneous racial composition and lower percentage of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch. However, the career centers may offer more specialized educational opportunities and resources that could benefit some Conotton Valley students. The school's fluctuating statewide ranking, ranging from the top 40% of Ohio high schools to the bottom 20%, suggests that its performance may be influenced by factors not easily captured in the available data, and addressing the high rates of chronic absenteeism could be a key focus area for the school and district to improve student engagement and outcomes.

As you review the school rankings data, please be aware that some of the information from certain demographics is missing. The reason for this omission is that the data has been redacted from the source data itself due to low population samples in these specific demographic groups.

Redacting data from low population samples is a necessary step to ensure the reliability and accuracy of the results, as small sample sizes may not be representative of the broader population. Additionally, this measure helps protect the privacy of individuals belonging to these demographic groups.

About Students eligible for discounted/free lunch:

The National School Lunch Program (NSLP) provides low-cost or free meals to students in U.S. public and nonprofit private schools based on household income. Those with incomes below 130% of the poverty line receive free lunch, while those between 130% and 185% qualify for reduced-price lunch. The percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch serves as a marker for poverty, as it reflects the socioeconomic status of families in a given school or district. A higher FRPL rate typically indicates a higher concentration of low-income families, suggesting that the school or district may face additional challenges in providing adequate resources and support for student success.

About Student-Teacher Ratio

Student/teacher ratio is calculated by dividing the total number of students by the total number of full-time equivalent teachers. Please note that a smaller student/teacher ratio does not necessarily translate to smaller class size. In some instances, schools hire teachers part time, and some teachers are hired for specialized instruction with very small class sizes. These and other factors contribute to the student/teacher ratio. Note: For private schools, Student/teacher ratio may not include Pre-Kindergarten.
