Champion Local

The Champion Local school district in Ohio consists of three schools: Champion Central Elementary School, Champion Middle School, and Champion High School. Overall, the district is performing very well, with all three schools ranking in the top 15-20% of their respective school types in Ohio.

Champion Middle School stands out as the top performer, consistently ranking among the top 10% of Ohio middle schools and earning high ratings from SchoolDigger. The school's students significantly outperform the state averages in Math, ELA, Science, and Algebra I. Champion High School also performs well, ranking in the top 15% of Ohio high schools and boasting a very high 4-year graduation rate of 97.2%. In contrast, while Champion Central Elementary School still performs above the state average, it has a lower ranking and rating compared to the middle and high schools.

However, the district faces some challenges, including high chronic absenteeism rates across all schools, ranging from 17.2% to 27.4%. Additionally, the student populations at all three schools are predominantly white, suggesting the district may need to examine issues of equity and inclusion to ensure all students are receiving the support they need. The differences in per-student spending across the school levels, with the high school receiving the most funding, could also be an area to explore further to understand resource allocation and potential impacts on student outcomes.
