Summary:
The Westfall Local district in Ohio has only one middle school, Westfall Middle School, which serves students in grades 6-8. The school's student population is predominantly White (92.94%), with limited racial/ethnic diversity. While the school excels in Algebra I with a 100% proficiency rate, its performance across other subject areas and grade levels is more inconsistent, with some grades meeting or exceeding state averages and others falling behind.
Westfall Middle School's academic performance is a mixed bag, with strengths in English Language Arts but more variable results in Mathematics and Science. The school's statewide ranking has declined in recent years, dropping from 382nd out of 1,017 Ohio middle schools in 2021-2022 to 485th out of 1,046 in 2023-2024, despite maintaining a consistent 3-star rating from SchoolDigger. This suggests the need for the school to closely examine its curriculum and instructional practices to ensure consistent excellence across all subject areas.
With a chronic absenteeism rate of 15.4% and 42.94% of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, Westfall Middle School faces some challenges in supporting its student population. However, the school's strong performance in Algebra I and its generally solid academic standing indicate that it may be a viable option for families in the Westfall Local district, provided the school can address its inconsistencies and promote greater diversity and inclusivity.
