Summary:
The city of Glouster, Ohio is home to 4 schools serving students from elementary through high school, including 1 elementary school, 1 middle school, 2 high schools (one of which is a virtual school), and 0 alternative schools. While the Trimble Local District schools serve a predominantly white student population, they face significant challenges in academic performance and high chronic absenteeism rates.
The standout schools in the district include Trimble Elementary School, which has a high percentage of white students (96.22%) and relatively low performance on state tests, with proficiency rates ranging from 36.2% to 62.1%. Similarly, Trimble Junior High has a high percentage of white students (93.72%) and low performance on state tests, with proficiency rates ranging from 5.1% to 44.6%. However, the school's performance on the Algebra I end-of-course exam is relatively strong, with a 59.1% proficiency rate, higher than the state average. Trimble High School also has a high percentage of white students (96.28%) and low performance on state tests, with proficiency rates ranging from 10.2% to 55.1%. Despite these academic challenges, the school maintains a relatively strong four-year graduation rate of 92.7%.
Across the district, the schools face significant challenges, including a lack of diversity, low academic performance, and extremely high chronic absenteeism rates, particularly at the high school level. These issues may be exacerbated by the relatively low spending per student, which ranges from $10,120 to $11,639. Addressing these concerns should be a top priority for the Trimble Local District to ensure that all students have access to a high-quality education and the resources they need to succeed.
