Summary:
The Ashby Public School District is home to two schools - Ashby Elementary and Ashby Secondary. While Ashby Elementary consistently outperforms the state in math proficiency, Ashby Secondary has seen a decline in its performance, raising concerns about potential equity issues within the district.
Ashby Elementary stands out for its strong math performance, with 78.57% of 3rd graders proficient in math compared to the state average of 58.79%. In contrast, Ashby Secondary lags behind the state averages in both math and reading proficiency, particularly in 10th and 11th grade. However, Ashby Secondary boasts a 100% four-year graduation rate and a 0% dropout rate, indicating that the school is effectively supporting its students and keeping them engaged.
The data also reveals some demographic differences between the two schools. Ashby Elementary has a predominantly white student population (95.63%), while Ashby Secondary has a slightly more diverse student body. The significant difference in test scores between the two schools may suggest potential equity concerns within the Ashby Public School District, warranting further investigation and targeted interventions to ensure all students have access to high-quality education.
