The city of North Baltimore, Ohio, is home to three schools that serve students from elementary through high school. The data reveals a mix of strong-performing and struggling schools in the area, with the North Baltimore High School and North Baltimore Middle School emerging as the standout performers, while the E.A. Powell Elementary School has room for improvement in certain academic areas.
The high school and middle school in North Baltimore have impressive rankings, with the high school ranked 394 out of 864 Ohio high schools and the middle school ranked 428 out of 1,046 Ohio middle schools. Both schools have a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger and generally outperform the state averages on end-of-course and 8th grade state tests, particularly in science and English Language Arts. In contrast, the elementary school's performance on state tests is more mixed, with some strong results in 5th grade English Language Arts but weaker performance in 3rd grade Math.
The data also reveals some challenges facing the schools in North Baltimore, such as high rates of free and reduced-price lunch recipients, particularly at the high school level, and concerning chronic absenteeism rates at the high school. These factors may contribute to the academic struggles observed at the elementary school and indicate a need for targeted interventions to address the economic and social challenges faced by many students in the North Baltimore Local district.
