Summary:
The city of Felicity, Ohio is home to three public schools serving students from elementary through high school: Felicity-Franklin Local Elementary School, Felicity-Franklin Local High School, and Felicity-Franklin Local Middle School. The data reveals that the standout school in the district is the elementary school, which consistently outperforms the other schools on state assessments, particularly in Mathematics and English Language Arts.
While the schools have a predominantly white student population, there are significant socioeconomic disparities, with the elementary school having a free and reduced lunch rate of 35.16% compared to the middle school's 87.97%. This suggests potential challenges in addressing the needs of students from diverse backgrounds. Additionally, the district as a whole faces concerns around chronic absenteeism, with rates ranging from 30.4% to 38.6%, which may be an area for improvement.
The high school and middle school have seen a decline in their SchoolDigger ratings over the past few years, dropping from 3 stars to 2 stars. This indicates a need for closer examination of the factors contributing to this decline, such as academic performance in subjects like Algebra I, where the middle school's proficiency rates, while higher than the state average, are still relatively low. Overall, the data highlights the strengths of the elementary school while also identifying areas for improvement across the Felicity-Franklin Local district.
