Summary:
The 44505 zip code area in Ohio is home to two elementary schools - E J Blott Elementary School and M L King Elementary School, which serve students in grades K-5. While E J Blott Elementary outperforms the state and district averages in academic proficiency, M L King Elementary struggles significantly, ranking in the bottom 10% of Ohio elementary schools.
E J Blott Elementary School has a more diverse student population, with 47.5% White, 31.2% African American, and 11.3% Hispanic students. In contrast, M L King Elementary School serves a majority minority student population, with 39.2% African American and 48.6% Hispanic students. Despite the significant difference in academic performance, M L King Elementary School spends more per student than E J Blott Elementary School, suggesting that funding alone may not be the primary driver of academic success.
Both schools face challenges with high chronic absenteeism rates, with M L King Elementary's rate of 49.3% being particularly concerning and well above the state and district averages. These findings raise questions about potential equity and access issues that may be contributing to the disparities in academic performance between the two schools in the 44505 zip code area.
