Summary:
The Ridgemont Local school district in Ohio consists of two schools: Ridgemont Elementary School and Ridgemont High School. While Ridgemont High School is a standout performer, ranking in the top 20% of Ohio high schools, Ridgemont Elementary School appears to be struggling, with lower-than-average proficiency rates and a higher chronic absenteeism rate.
Ridgemont High School boasts a 100% four-year graduation rate and its students outperform the state and district averages on several key end-of-course assessments, including American History, Biology, English II, and Algebra I. In contrast, Ridgemont Elementary School ranks 1,008 out of 1,577 Ohio elementary schools and has lower proficiency rates in mathematics compared to the state and district averages.
The racial makeup of both schools is quite homogeneous, with over 90% of students identifying as white. Additionally, spending per student is higher at the high school level ($10,833) compared to the elementary school ($9,375), which may be an area for the district to examine. Overall, the data suggests that while Ridgemont High School is a strong performer, the district as a whole has room for improvement, and addressing the disparities between the two schools should be a priority for the Ridgemont Local school district.
