Summary:
The Hamilton City school district in Ohio comprises 12 schools, including 8 elementary schools, 2 middle schools, and 2 high schools, serving students from kindergarten through 12th grade. The district as a whole is ranked 546 out of 839 school districts in Ohio and is rated 2 out of 5 stars by SchoolDigger.
Within the district, a few schools stand out for their academic performance. Brookwood Elementary School and Ridgeway Elementary School have the highest test scores across multiple grade levels and subjects, exceeding district and state averages. Garfield Middle School also stands out for its exceptional Algebra I proficiency rates, with 97.6% of students scoring proficient or better, compared to 62.5% for the district and 55.9% for the state.
However, the data also reveals significant disparities in academic performance across the Hamilton City school district. For example, in 5th grade science, Ridgeway Elementary had 65.6% proficiency, while Riverview Elementary had only 36.1% proficiency. These disparities appear to be linked to socioeconomic factors, as schools with higher percentages of free/reduced-price lunch recipients tend to have lower academic performance. Addressing these challenges and ensuring equitable educational opportunities for all students will be crucial for the district's improvement.
