Summary:
Elgin Local district in Ohio has only one middle school, Elgin Middle School, which serves grades 6-8 with a total enrollment of 261 students. The school's performance is mixed, with some areas of strength but also significant weaknesses.
Elgin Middle School has a predominantly white student population (93.49%) and a relatively high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch (48.28%), indicating it may be serving a socioeconomically disadvantaged community. The school's statewide ranking and rating have fluctuated over the past few years, with a 2-star rating in the 2023-2024 school year and a ranking of 640 out of 1,046 Ohio middle schools. While the school's Algebra I and 8th grade Science scores are above state averages, its Math and English Language Arts (ELA) scores are mixed, with some grades performing below state averages.
Elgin Middle School's high chronic absenteeism rate of 27.1% is a significant concern, as is its relatively low student-teacher ratio of 11.6 to 1, which does not seem to be translating into consistently strong academic outcomes. Overall, Elgin Local district's sole middle school appears to be struggling to achieve consistently strong academic performance, particularly in core subject areas, and may need targeted interventions to improve student outcomes.
