Foxfire High School

Summary:

Foxfire High School is a public charter high school serving grades 9-12 in Zanesville, Ohio, with a current enrollment of 239 students. The school has a predominantly white student population, but faces significant academic and attendance challenges compared to state averages and a nearby public high school.

Academically, Foxfire High School consistently underperforms the state on Ohio State Tests across all subject areas, with proficiency rates ranging from just 7.1% to 18.6% in key subjects like math and history. The school's four-year graduation rate has fluctuated, reaching a high of 91.6% in 2022-2023, but still lags behind the state average. Additionally, Foxfire High has experienced a concerning trend of increasing chronic absenteeism, rising from 38% in 2019-2020 to 60.2% in the 2023-2024 school year.

In comparison, the nearby Zanesville Campus public high school has a significantly higher percentage of white students (95.73%) and a lower percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch (38.41%) compared to Foxfire High. This suggests that Foxfire High may be serving a more economically disadvantaged population, which could contribute to its academic and attendance challenges. The school's district, Mid-East Career and Technology Centers, is ranked 779 out of 839 districts in Ohio and has a 0-star rating from SchoolDigger.

As you review the school rankings data, please be aware that some of the information from certain demographics is missing. The reason for this omission is that the data has been redacted from the source data itself due to low population samples in these specific demographic groups.

Redacting data from low population samples is a necessary step to ensure the reliability and accuracy of the results, as small sample sizes may not be representative of the broader population. Additionally, this measure helps protect the privacy of individuals belonging to these demographic groups.

About Students eligible for discounted/free lunch:

The National School Lunch Program (NSLP) provides low-cost or free meals to students in U.S. public and nonprofit private schools based on household income. Those with incomes below 130% of the poverty line receive free lunch, while those between 130% and 185% qualify for reduced-price lunch. The percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch serves as a marker for poverty, as it reflects the socioeconomic status of families in a given school or district. A higher FRPL rate typically indicates a higher concentration of low-income families, suggesting that the school or district may face additional challenges in providing adequate resources and support for student success.

About Student-Teacher Ratio

Student/teacher ratio is calculated by dividing the total number of students by the total number of full-time equivalent teachers. Please note that a smaller student/teacher ratio does not necessarily translate to smaller class size. In some instances, schools hire teachers part time, and some teachers are hired for specialized instruction with very small class sizes. These and other factors contribute to the student/teacher ratio. Note: For private schools, Student/teacher ratio may not include Pre-Kindergarten.
