Summary:
The 45169 zip code area has only one middle school, East Clinton Junior High School, which serves grades 6-8. The school has a student population of 276, with a racial makeup that is predominantly White (92.03%) and a relatively high percentage of students (44.57%) receiving free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a higher proportion of students from lower-income families.
Academically, East Clinton Junior High School faces some challenges, with proficiency rates on Ohio State Tests falling below the state averages in mathematics and English Language Arts across multiple grade levels. However, the school's Algebra I proficiency rate is exceptionally high at 96%, significantly outpacing the state average of 53%. The school also grapples with a concerning chronic absenteeism rate of 32.7%, which may be linked to the socioeconomic factors affecting the student population.
Despite these challenges, the school's spending per student of $8,701 and a student-teacher ratio of 16.2 are within typical ranges for middle schools. The data suggests that East Clinton Junior High School would benefit from targeted interventions and support programs to address the areas of academic underperformance, particularly in mathematics and English Language Arts, while also exploring ways to address the high chronic absenteeism rate and support the needs of its socioeconomically diverse student body.
