Summary:
The 45424 zip code area is home to 10 schools, including 6 elementary schools, 2 middle schools, and 2 high schools, serving students from the Huber Heights City and Mad River Local school districts. While the schools exhibit a wide range of performance, a few standouts emerge based on the data.
Weisenborn Junior High stands out for its high proficiency rates on the Ohio State Tests, particularly in Algebra I, though its overall state ranking is lower than other middle schools in the area. At the high school level, Stebbins High School has higher proficiency rates and a slightly higher graduation rate compared to Wayne High School. Among the elementary schools, Charles Huber Elementary and Monticello Elementary stand out for their strong performance on the Ohio State Tests, particularly in Mathematics and English Language Arts.
However, the data also reveals some concerning trends across the schools, including high chronic absenteeism rates (28-29%) and a relatively high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch (40-55%), indicating a significant level of economic disadvantage in the area. Spending per student varies widely, from $6,972 to $10,548, with middle and high schools generally spending more than elementary schools. These factors likely contribute to the variation in school performance and suggest that a multifaceted approach addressing attendance, economic challenges, and sharing of best practices could help improve outcomes for all students in the 45424 zip code area.
