Summary:
The 45680 zip code area has only one middle school, South Point Middle School, which serves students in grades 6-8. This school appears to be underperforming academically compared to state averages, particularly in Math and Science, and has a high chronic absenteeism rate, which is concerning.
South Point Middle School has an enrollment of 330 students, with a predominantly White student body (84.55%). The school has consistently ranked in the bottom half of Ohio middle schools, with a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger. Academically, the school's proficiency rates in 8th grade Science (54.2%) and 6th-8th grade Math (30.4% to 44.6%) are significantly lower than the state averages. However, the school's Algebra I proficiency rate is 100%, much higher than the district (36.4%) and state (53%) averages.
While the school's spending per student ($8,696) and student-teacher ratio (17.3 to 1) are in line with state averages, the high chronic absenteeism rate of 36.5% is a significant concern. The school's racial makeup also suggests a lack of diversity, which may indicate challenges in serving a more diverse student population. Overall, South Point Local district and South Point Middle School have room for improvement in several key areas to better support student learning and achievement.
