Randall Park High School

Summary:

Randall Park High School is a small public charter high school in North Randall, Ohio, serving 144 students in grades 9-12. The school's student population is predominantly African American, in contrast to the more racially diverse nearby Luther E Ball (Chjcf) school.

Despite its small size, Randall Park High School faces significant challenges. The school consistently ranks among the lowest-performing high schools in Ohio, with dismal proficiency rates on state assessments that are far below the state averages. Graduation rates have been extremely low, ranging from 0% to 44.6% over the past 5 years, compared to the state average of 80-85%. Additionally, the school has grappled with a severe chronic absenteeism crisis, with rates as high as 99.7% in recent years, far exceeding the state average of 15-20%. These academic and attendance struggles likely stem from the school's socioeconomic challenges, as it serves a predominantly low-income student population.

In contrast to Randall Park High School, the nearby Luther E Ball (Chjcf) school has a much lower student-teacher ratio of 10.0, compared to Randall Park's range of 16.6 to 28.8 over the past 3 years. This stark difference in resources and support may contribute to the persistent underperformance observed at Randall Park High School, which has shown no signs of significant improvement over the past decade. Addressing the root causes of this school's challenges will require comprehensive and sustained interventions by the Buckeye United School District and the local community.

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.
