Summary:
The Gibsonburg Exempted Village school district is home to a single high school, Gibsonburg High School, which serves 246 students in grades 9-12. While the school boasts a relatively high graduation rate, it faces a mix of academic, demographic, and resource-related challenges that have contributed to a decline in its statewide ranking over the past few years.
Academically, Gibsonburg High School's test scores show significant variability, with strong performance in American Government but weaker results in subjects like Geometry and English II. This uneven academic performance suggests the need for targeted interventions to address specific weaknesses. Additionally, the school's high chronic absenteeism rate of 16.4% is a concern and may be impacting student learning and achievement.
Demographically, Gibsonburg High School serves a relatively low-income student population, with 62.2% of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch. This socioeconomic challenge may contribute to the school's academic struggles. Furthermore, the school's per-student spending of $9,259 is on the lower end compared to state averages, which could be a factor in the school's performance. Addressing these resource-related challenges through increased funding and support could help Gibsonburg High School improve its outcomes and better serve its students.
