Quaker Digital Academy

Summary:

Quaker Digital Academy is a public charter virtual school in New Philadelphia, Ohio, serving 673 students from kindergarten through 12th grade. While the school has a predominantly White student population, it also serves a diverse community, with 4.46% African American, 5.35% Hispanic, 0.3% Asian, 0.3% Native American, and 4.75% identifying as two or more races.

However, Quaker Digital Academy faces several challenges. Its four-year graduation rates have fluctuated, ranging from a low of 42.0% in 2019-2020 to a high of 62.3% in 2022-2023, consistently falling below the state average of 69.1%. The school also experiences high rates of chronic absenteeism, ranging from 11.8% in 2020-2021 to 20.6% in 2023-2024, significantly higher than the state average of 16.1%. Academically, the school's performance on the Ohio State Tests is generally lower than the state averages across various subjects and grade levels, with particularly low proficiency rates in Mathematics.

Additionally, Quaker Digital Academy has a high student-teacher ratio, ranging from 49.6 in 2020-2021 and 2021-2022 to 56.6 in 2022-2023, which is significantly higher than the state average of around 16 students per teacher. These factors suggest that the school may need to implement targeted interventions and strategies to address its challenges and improve the educational experiences and outcomes for its students.

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.
