Summary:
The city of Berlin Center, Ohio is home to three schools in the Western Reserve Local District: Western Reserve Elementary School, Western Reserve Middle School, and Western Reserve High School. These schools consistently outperform state averages, with the elementary and middle schools ranking in the top 20-25% of their respective school types in Ohio and earning 4-star ratings from SchoolDigger.
The standout schools in the district are Western Reserve Elementary School, which boasts high test scores with over 80% proficiency in Math, English Language Arts, and Science, and a low chronic absenteeism rate of 13.7%, and Western Reserve Middle School, which also demonstrates strong academic performance and a low chronic absenteeism rate of 13.3%. However, the Western Reserve High School has a higher chronic absenteeism rate of 22.3%, which may be an area of concern for the district.
While the schools in the Western Reserve Local District are delivering a high-quality education, the demographic homogeneity of the student populations, with over 94% of students being white, and the significant socioeconomic divide at the high school, where 97.87% of students receive free or reduced-price lunch, suggest that the district may need to address issues of diversity and equity within the community.
