Summary:
The 45120 zip code area has only one middle school, Felicity-Franklin Local Middle School, which serves students in grades 6-8. This school faces several challenges, including a lack of racial diversity, mixed academic performance, high chronic absenteeism, and a high percentage of economically disadvantaged students.
Felicity-Franklin Local Middle School has a student population that is predominantly White (93.98%), which is not representative of the racial diversity seen in many other Ohio middle schools. The school's academic performance is mixed, with 8th grade students scoring above the state average in Science but below average in Math and 8th grade English Language Arts. The school also has a concerning high chronic absenteeism rate of 40.3%, significantly above the state average.
Despite these challenges, the school appears to be allocating resources to support smaller class sizes and higher per-student spending. However, addressing the root causes of the school's performance issues and implementing targeted interventions may be necessary to improve student outcomes. The school serves a population with significant economic challenges, with 87.97% of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a high level of economic disadvantage.
