Summary:
The elementary schools located in Warren City, Ohio, serve students from preschool through 8th grade. This analysis examines five schools in the district, including Lincoln Pk-8 School, Willard Avenue Pk-8 School, McGuffey Pk-8 School, Jefferson Pk-8 School, and Preschool at Warren G. Harding High School.
Lincoln Pk-8 School stands out as the highest-performing school in the district, with the largest enrollment, a higher percentage of white students, and strong test scores that exceed the Warren City and state averages. In contrast, the other schools in the district generally underperform the state averages, with high chronic absenteeism rates ranging from 39.4% to 49.1%. The racial makeup of the schools varies, with some having a majority of African American students and others having a more balanced representation.
While the schools face significant challenges, there are also signs of potential for improvement. Willard Avenue Pk-8 School outperforms the Warren City district average in certain test score categories, and the district's spending per student is in line with the state average. Addressing the high chronic absenteeism rates and implementing targeted interventions could help the other schools in the district improve their academic outcomes and provide a more equitable education for all students in the Warren City community.
