Jacket Virtual Academy

Public, Virtual Grades 4-12

Summary

Jacket Virtual Academy is an alternative public virtual school located in Sidney, Ohio, serving grades 3-12 with a total enrollment of 119 students. The school is part of the Sidney City School District, which is ranked 583 out of 828 districts in Ohio and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Jacket Virtual Academy has faced significant challenges, including fluctuating four-year graduation rates ranging from 56.8% to 85.0% over the past three school years, which are significantly lower than the nearby Wapakoneta High School, which had a 94.7% four-year graduation rate in 2024-2025. Additionally, the school has experienced high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 24.9% to 29.7% in the past three school years, compared to Wapakoneta High School's much lower rate of 15.6% in 2024-2025.

Academically, Jacket Virtual Academy's students have consistently underperformed compared to the Sidney City School District and the state of Ohio in various Ohio State Tests. For example, in 2024-2025, the school's proficiency rates were significantly lower than the district and state averages in subjects like American Government, Biology, and Geometry. These findings suggest that the school may be struggling to provide effective virtual education and support for its students, and further investigation into the underlying factors could provide valuable insights for the district and the state in addressing the unique needs of virtual schools.
