Summary:
The city of Franklin, Ohio is home to 7 schools, including 5 elementary schools, 1 middle school, and 1 high school. The schools in this district serve a predominantly white student population, with varying levels of performance and student demographics.
Among the standout schools in Franklin is Hunter Elementary School, which consistently ranks among the top elementary schools in the state with a 4-star rating. It boasts strong test scores, low chronic absenteeism, and a relatively low percentage of students receiving free/reduced lunch. In contrast, George H Gerke Elementary School has a higher percentage of economically disadvantaged students and struggles with lower test scores and higher chronic absenteeism. The Franklin High School stands out with a solid 3-star rating, a high 4-year graduation rate of 95.6%, and test scores above the state average in several subjects.
The data reveals a noticeable gap in performance between the top-performing schools and the lower-performing ones, particularly in areas like test scores and chronic absenteeism. This disparity seems to be correlated with the socioeconomic status of the student population, as schools with higher percentages of students receiving free/reduced lunch tend to have lower academic outcomes. The Franklin City district has an opportunity to address these challenges and work towards more equitable outcomes for all students in the area.
