Findlay City

The Findlay City school district in Ohio consists of 9 schools, including 6 elementary schools, 2 middle schools, and 1 high school. The district's schools generally perform well, with several standout institutions and strong metrics across the board.

Chamberlin Hill Elementary School is a top-performing elementary school, ranking 379 out of 1,577 Ohio elementary schools and earning a 4-star rating. It boasts the lowest chronic absenteeism rate in the district at 8.0% and strong test scores, with 75-85% of students proficient or better in math and English language arts. Meanwhile, Findlay High School stands out with a high 96.1% four-year graduation rate and generally strong test scores, with 66-77% of students proficient or better on end-of-course exams. The district's two middle schools, Glenwood Middle School and Donnell Middle School, also excel, with 100% proficiency rates on the Algebra I end-of-course exam.

However, the data also reveals some areas for potential improvement, particularly at the elementary school level. While the elementary schools generally perform well, there is more variation in their state rankings and test scores compared to the middle and high schools. Additionally, the schools with the highest rates of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, such as Northview Primary and Bigelow Hill Elementary, also tend to have the highest chronic absenteeism and lower test scores, highlighting the challenges faced by students from economically disadvantaged backgrounds.
