Summary:

The 43202 zip code in Columbus, Ohio is home to a single middle school, Dominion Middle School, which serves students in grades 6-8. Based on the available data, Dominion Middle School appears to be a relatively strong performer compared to the district and state averages, particularly in certain subject areas like Geometry and Algebra I.

Dominion Middle School has consistently ranked in the middle range of Ohio middle schools over the past three school years, with a SchoolDigger rating of 2 out of 5 stars. The school's proficiency rates on Ohio State Tests are generally higher than the Columbus City Schools District and state averages, especially in science, math, and English language arts. Additionally, the school has achieved exceptional results on Geometry and Algebra I end-of-course exams, with proficiency rates of 100% and 85.5% respectively in the 2024-2025 school year.

However, the school's high chronic absenteeism rate of 52.6% in the 2024-2025 school year is a concern and may be an area for further investigation and intervention. Without information on the school's free and reduced-price lunch rates, it is difficult to fully assess the socioeconomic status of the student population and how that may be impacting the school's overall performance. Nevertheless, the school's relatively low student-teacher ratio and per-student spending suggest that resources may not be the primary factor driving the school's performance, and other factors such as curriculum, instruction, and school leadership may be more influential.
