Summary:
The 45822 zip code area is home to two middle schools - Celina Middle School and Celina Intermediate Elementary School. These schools serve students in the Celina City district and demonstrate a mix of academic strengths and challenges.
Celina Middle School stands out for its exceptional test scores, with proficiency rates that exceed both the Celina City and Ohio state averages across various subjects and grade levels. For example, in 2023-2024, the school had an impressive 97.7% proficiency rate in Algebra I. In contrast, Celina Intermediate Elementary School has a much lower chronic absenteeism rate of 5.8%, compared to 18.8% at the middle school, suggesting the elementary school is doing a better job of keeping students engaged and attending regularly.

This funding disparity may contribute to the academic and attendance disparities observed between the two schools. Additionally, the significant drop in test scores and increase in chronic absenteeism rates when students transition from the elementary school to the middle school suggests a need for targeted support and interventions to help students maintain their academic momentum.
