Summary:
The city of Hanoverton, Ohio is home to two public schools, United High School (grades 6-12) and United Elementary School (grades K-5), both part of the United Local School District. While the elementary school performs well academically, the high school struggles in certain subject areas, particularly mathematics. Additionally, the high school has a significantly higher chronic absenteeism rate compared to the elementary school.
Academically, United Elementary School outperforms United High School, scoring above the state average in most subject areas. In contrast, the high school performs above the state average in some subjects, such as science and history, but struggles in mathematics. This academic performance gap between the two schools may be influenced by the difference in per-student spending, with the high school spending more per student than the elementary school.
Both schools have a predominantly white student population, with United Elementary School having an even higher percentage of white students (98.15%) compared to United High School (95.48%). This lack of racial diversity in the Hanoverton school system is an area that could be addressed to better reflect the community. Additionally, the high school's higher chronic absenteeism rate may be a concern and could impact student learning and achievement.
