Summary:
The 43731 zip code area is home to three schools - Crooksville Elementary School, Crooksville Middle School, and Crooksville High School - all part of the Crooksville Exempted Village district. While the schools share some strengths, such as high Algebra I proficiency at the middle school level and a strong 4-year graduation rate at the high school, they also face significant academic challenges across grade levels and subject areas.
Crooksville Elementary School stands out for its relatively high 4th grade math proficiency, though its 3rd grade English language arts proficiency lags behind state averages. At Crooksville Middle School, 8th grade science proficiency is strong, but math proficiency across 5th-8th grades is low. The high school, meanwhile, has a high 4-year graduation rate but struggles with low proficiency in Geometry and Algebra I. Interestingly, the high school performs better on American Government and American History end-of-course exams compared to the state.
Across the district, chronic absenteeism is a concern, with all three schools reporting a rate of 18.0%, higher than the state average. Additionally, the schools are ranked in the bottom half of their respective school types in Ohio, and the district as a whole has a rating of 2 out of 5 stars, suggesting broader systemic challenges that need to be addressed. Addressing these disparities in academic performance, attendance, and overall district-level issues will be crucial for improving educational outcomes for students in this community.
