Summary:
The 45406 zip code area of Dayton, Ohio is home to 3 struggling schools - 2 elementary schools (Fairview Elementary School and Rosa Parks Early Learning Center) and 1 high school (The Dayton School). These schools are performing well below state and district averages on key metrics, with alarmingly high chronic absenteeism rates and dismal proficiency levels.
Fairview Elementary School stands out as one of the lowest-performing elementary schools in Ohio, ranking in the bottom 3% statewide. The school has consistently low proficiency rates across multiple grade levels and subject areas, with the lowest rates in 6th grade math (4.5%) and 6th grade ELA (6.8%). Similarly, The Dayton School is an extremely low-performing high school, with proficiency rates near 0% in core subjects like Biology and Algebra I, a graduation rate of just 33.3%, and a ranking in the bottom 1% of Ohio high schools.
Chronic absenteeism appears to be a major issue across all 3 schools, with rates at Fairview Elementary and Rosa Parks Early Learning Center nearly 45% and an astounding 93.4% at The Dayton School. This likely contributes to the poor academic performance observed. Addressing chronic absenteeism, improving instructional quality, and providing targeted resources and support to students should be top priorities for these struggling schools in the 45406 zip code area.
