Summary

New Richmond Preparatory Academy is a very small K–6 elementary school in New Richmond, OH, serving 43 students with a student-teacher ratio of 8.6 and operating as its own district, placing it in the middle of nearby schools in the Forest Hills Local, West Clermont Local, and New Richmond Exempted Village districts.

The school stands out for its size and staffing: its 43 students are roughly one-seventh the size of Locust Corner Elementary School (314) and about one-fifteenth the size of Amelia Elementary School (671), while its 8.6 student-teacher ratio is much lower than nearby schools’ 14.9–22.1. However, chronic absenteeism is 39.6%, higher than every nearby school in the comparison set (6.5%–28.4%) and above the surrounding district rates: 12.2% for Forest Hills Local, 24.8% for West Clermont Local, and 19.1% for New Richmond Exempted Village. Even with only 43 students, that absenteeism gap is a major outlier.

Academically, results are mixed. Sixth-grade English language arts is a strength at 80% proficient, well above the state’s 56% and close to Maddux Elementary School (81%) and Ayer Elementary School (82.4%), though below Summit Elementary School (89.5%). Sixth-grade math is above the state at 60% vs. 56.2%, but trails Forest Hills Local 6th-grade peers at 79%–85.9%. Third-grade ELA is a clear weakness: 50% proficient vs. the state’s 63.4% and below every nearby school’s reported range of 61%–91.3%. The school’s low-SES subgroup ranks at the 73rd percentile statewide with 4 stars, higher than its overall 53rd percentile and 3 stars, suggesting stronger results for low-income students. Overall, it ranks 731 of 1,560 and is locally mid-pack—behind Forest Hills Local schools, roughly comparable to Monroe Elementary School (60th percentile) and Locust Corner Elementary School (55th percentile), and ahead of Withamsville-Tobasco Elementary School and Holly Hill Elementary School. Because only 43 students are enrolled, grade-level scores can swing from year to year, so track trends over multiple years.
