Southern Local


Summary:

The Southern Local district in Ohio is home to two schools: Southern Local Junior/Senior High School and Southern Local Elementary School. While the high school boasts an impressive 98.4% graduation rate, both schools face challenges with below-average test scores and high chronic absenteeism rates.

The standout elements of these schools include the elementary school's strong performance on 5th grade science tests, where 81.8% of students scored proficient or better, significantly higher than the state average. However, both schools generally lag behind state averages on other academic measures, suggesting a potential focus on graduation rates over academic achievement. Additionally, the schools have a predominantly white student population, which may not reflect the diversity of the broader community.

Despite relatively high spending per student, the Southern Local schools have room for improvement. Addressing the chronic absenteeism issue and evaluating how resources are allocated to drive better student outcomes should be priorities for the district. By focusing on these areas, the Southern Local schools can work to provide a stronger educational experience for all students in the community.
