Summary:
The zip code 45338 contains only one middle school, Tri-County North Middle School, which serves students in grades 5-8. This school has a predominantly white student population and has maintained a consistent 3-star rating from SchoolDigger over the past few years, ranking in the 300s and 400s out of over 1,000 Ohio middle schools.
Tri-County North Middle School has some academic strengths, such as strong performance in 5th grade English Language Arts and 8th grade Mathematics, exceeding state averages. However, the school struggles in 8th grade English Language Arts, with only 46.3% of students proficient or better, compared to the state average of 49.4%. The school's performance in Science is also mixed, with 5th graders scoring below the state average but 8th graders scoring above. The school's high spending per student of $10,831 in 2018-2019 suggests significant investment, but it will be important to analyze how this funding is being utilized to improve student outcomes.
One area of concern for Tri-County North Local district is the school's high chronic absenteeism rate of 19.1% in 2023-2024, which is a concerning metric that the school and district should address. Additionally, the school's lack of racial diversity, with a predominantly white student population, may be an area for the district to consider addressing to promote a more inclusive and representative student body.
