Middle Schools in Mathews Local

Mathews Local district in Ohio has only one middle school, Mathews Junior High School, which serves students in grades 6-8. The school has a relatively homogeneous student population, with 95.89% of students identifying as White. While the school's academic performance is mixed, with some areas of strength and some areas of weakness compared to state averages, its high chronic absenteeism rate of 16.6% and high student-teacher ratio of 48.6 are areas of concern.

Mathews Junior High School's statewide ranking has fluctuated in recent years, currently ranking 442 out of 1,046 Ohio middle schools with a 3-star rating. The school's performance on state assessments is varied, with 8th grade Science proficiency slightly above the state average, but 8th grade Mathematics and 6th grade English Language Arts proficiency rates below the state average. However, the school's Algebra I proficiency rate of 100% is significantly higher than the state average of 55.9%.

Despite the school's mixed academic performance, its spending per student of $9,813 is above the state average. This suggests that the district may need to examine how resources are being allocated and explore ways to improve student outcomes, particularly in areas where the school is underperforming. Addressing the high chronic absenteeism rate and student-teacher ratio could also be important steps in enhancing the educational experience for students at Mathews Junior High School within the Mathews Local district.
