Summary:
The 45771 zip code area is home to two schools, Southern Elementary School and Southern High School, both part of the Southern Local school district. While Southern High School is performing relatively well, with a strong graduation rate and proficiency rates on par with or slightly above the state average, Southern Elementary School faces some challenges in terms of academic performance and resource allocation.
Southern Elementary School's proficiency rates on state tests are mostly below the state average, with some exceptions in 5th grade science, 8th grade science, and 3rd grade ELA. The school also has a high chronic absenteeism rate of 24.1% and a relatively low spending per student of $8,738. In contrast, Southern High School has a higher graduation rate of 95.6% and a lower student-teacher ratio of 13, which may contribute to its stronger academic performance.
Overall, the data suggests that while the schools in the 45771 zip code area have some areas of strength, there are also opportunities for improvement, particularly at the elementary school level. Addressing the factors contributing to the differences in performance, such as resource allocation and chronic absenteeism, could help enhance educational outcomes for students in this community.
