Summary:
The 45661 zip code area is home to 3 schools, including 1 elementary school, 2 high schools, and 1 career technology center. These schools are part of the Scioto Valley Local and Pike County Area school districts.
Jasper Elementary School stands out for its relatively strong academic performance, with 3rd grade math proficiency rates close to the state average. However, the school struggles in English Language Arts, with proficiency rates below the state average. Piketon Junior/Senior High School has shown consistent academic performance, with proficiency rates at or above the state average in many subjects, but lags behind in math, particularly in Geometry.
Both Jasper Elementary and Piketon Junior/Senior High face challenges with high chronic absenteeism rates, which likely contribute to the academic performance gaps. The schools also have relatively low spending per student, which may indicate a need for more resources and funding to support student success. The presence of Vern Riffe Career Technology Center provides students with access to career and technical education opportunities, which could be an asset for the community.
