Horizon Science Academy-Springfield

Summary:

Horizon Science Academy-Springfield is a public charter elementary school located in Toledo, Ohio, serving 335 students in grades K-8. The school has a diverse student population, with a majority of African American students.

Horizon Science Academy-Springfield has consistently ranked in the bottom half of Ohio elementary schools, with a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger. The school's proficiency rates on state tests are generally lower than the state averages, particularly in 8th grade math where only 7.1% of students are proficient, compared to the state average of 46.3%. However, the school performs better for its African American students, ranking in the top 25-30% of Ohio elementary schools serving this population. The school has also experienced high rates of chronic absenteeism, which may be a contributing factor to its overall low academic performance.

Despite these challenges, Horizon Science Academy-Springfield has shown some promising signs, such as a recent improvement in its student-teacher ratio, which could provide more individualized attention and support for students. With the right strategies and interventions to address chronic absenteeism and strengthen instructional practices, the school may have the potential to improve its overall academic outcomes and better serve its diverse student population.

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.
