Northridge Local

The Northridge Local district in Ohio consists of three schools: Northridge Elementary, Northridge High School, and Northridge Middle School. The district serves a predominantly white student population, with varying socioeconomic backgrounds across the schools.

Northridge High School stands out as the top-performing school in the district, ranking 241 out of 864 Ohio high schools and earning a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger. The high school boasts impressive test scores, with over 80% proficiency in American Government, American History, and English II, as well as a high 4-year graduation rate of 96.1%. In contrast, Northridge Middle School appears to be the weakest link, with lower test scores and a higher chronic absenteeism rate compared to the other schools.

Northridge Elementary also demonstrates strong academic performance, particularly in science and English Language Arts, with proficiency rates exceeding the state averages. However, the significant disparity in free and reduced-price lunch rates between the elementary/middle schools and the high school suggests potential socioeconomic challenges that may impact student learning and achievement across the district. Overall, the Northridge Local district presents a mix of high-performing and lower-performing schools, with the high school being the standout and the middle school as an area for improvement.
