Troy City

The Troy City school district in Ohio comprises 9 schools, including 6 elementary schools, 2 middle schools, and 1 high school, serving a diverse student population. The data reveals a mix of high-performing and lower-performing schools within the district, with Concord Elementary School and Troy High School standing out as the top-performing institutions.

Concord Elementary School is a high-performing school, consistently ranking among the top elementary schools in Ohio. It boasts strong academic performance, with 84.7% of 5th graders proficient or better in Science, 95% of 3rd graders proficient or better in Math, and 91% of 5th graders proficient or better in English Language Arts. The school also has a low chronic absenteeism rate of 12.4% and a relatively low percentage of free/reduced lunch recipients at 11.73%, suggesting it may be serving a more affluent student population. In contrast, schools like Cookson Elementary and Heywood Elementary have lower test scores, higher absenteeism, and a larger percentage of students receiving free/reduced lunch, indicating they may be serving more disadvantaged communities.

Troy High School maintains a solid academic reputation, with strong test scores and a high graduation rate of 93% in 2023-2024. However, its relatively high chronic absenteeism rate of 28.5% is a concern and may be an area for improvement. The student-teacher ratios and spending per student also vary across the schools, with the higher-performing schools generally having lower ratios and higher spending, suggesting that these factors may contribute to their academic success. Overall, the data reveals the need to address the disparities in performance and resources among the schools within the Troy City school district.
