Summary:
The city of Antwerp, Ohio is home to three public schools that serve students from elementary through high school: Antwerp Local Elementary School, Antwerp Local High School, and Antwerp Local Middle School. These schools, part of the Antwerp Local school district, demonstrate a mix of academic excellence and areas for improvement.
Antwerp Local Elementary School stands out as a high-performing institution, with students consistently scoring well above the state averages on Ohio State Tests across multiple grade levels and subject areas. In contrast, Antwerp Local High School also excels, boasting a 100% four-year graduation rate and strong academic performance on end-of-course exams. However, the district's schools face challenges, such as a high chronic absenteeism rate at the high school and a predominantly white student population, which may indicate a need to promote diversity and inclusivity.
The data also reveals significant differences in resource allocation, with Antwerp Local High School spending the most per student at $13,208, while Antwerp Local Middle School spends the least at $7,524. Additionally, the high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch at the high school (98.22%) suggests that the district may need to provide additional support and resources to address the unique needs of its economically disadvantaged students.
