Summary:
The 44240 zip code area is home to 7 schools, including 5 elementary schools, 1 middle school, and 1 high school, all part of the Kent City and Field Local school districts. While the schools generally perform above the state average, there are notable differences in their performance, with Stanton Middle School and Brimfield Elementary School standing out as top performers in the area.
Stanton Middle School has consistently ranked among the top 30% of Ohio middle schools, with a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger and strong test scores, particularly in 8th grade math and science. In contrast, Theodore Roosevelt High School, while maintaining a 4-star rating and ranking in the top 35% of Ohio high schools, has lower test scores compared to the middle school. This unusual finding warrants further investigation.
Among the elementary schools, Brimfield Elementary stands out for its high performance in math, with over 70% proficiency in 4th and 5th grade, as well as lower chronic absenteeism rates. However, the other elementary schools, such as Davey Elementary and Holden Elementary, lag behind in performance, highlighting the stark differences within the district. Addressing these disparities and the high chronic absenteeism rates across the district will be crucial for improving overall educational outcomes in the 44240 zip code area.
