Summary:
The Continental Local school district in Ohio is home to two schools - Continental Local Elementary School and Continental Local High School. While the elementary school is a standout performer, earning a 5-star rating and ranking among the top 105 elementary schools in the state, the high school has seen a decline in its statewide ranking in recent years.
Continental Local Elementary School boasts exceptional academic achievement, with the majority of grade levels scoring well above the state average on Ohio state tests. In contrast, the high school has more mixed results, with some subject areas and grade levels performing above state averages but others lagging behind. The elementary school also has a lower chronic absenteeism rate of 6.1% compared to 10.5% at the high school.
Both schools have predominantly white student populations, with small percentages of Hispanic and multiracial students. The high school has a higher rate of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch at 40%, compared to 34.34% at the elementary school. This suggests increasing economic challenges for families in the community as students progress through the education system. Understanding the factors contributing to the disparities between the two schools and addressing the needs of the high school could help ensure equitable outcomes for all students in the Continental Local district.
