Summary:
The two elementary schools located in the 45690 zip code area of Waverly, Ohio, Waverly Primary School and Waverly Intermediate School, serve students from kindergarten through 5th grade. While the schools share similarities in their demographics and funding, their academic performance data reveals some areas of concern, particularly at the intermediate school level.
Academically, Waverly Intermediate School lags behind state averages on Ohio state tests, with proficiency rates below 50% in 3rd grade math and English Language Arts. In contrast, the school's 5th grade science proficiency rate is on par with the state average. Both schools also face challenges with chronic absenteeism, with rates around 20%, which may impact student learning and engagement.
The student populations at these schools are overwhelmingly White, with very low representation of other racial and ethnic groups. This lack of diversity could limit students' exposure to different backgrounds and perspectives. Additionally, while the per-student spending levels are not exceptionally low, the schools may benefit from additional resources and funding to support their educational programs and address the academic performance concerns observed, particularly at Waverly Intermediate School. Overall, the data suggests that the Waverly City school district has room for improvement to better serve the educational needs of the community.
