Manchester High School has a predominantly white student population, with 96.88% of students identifying as white, significantly higher than the state average and the nearby Ohio Valley Career & Technical Center, which has a 96.47% white student population. The school has maintained a relatively high four-year graduation rate, ranging from 89.3% to 94.3% over the past five years, generally higher than the state average. However, the school has experienced a concerning increase in chronic absenteeism, rising from 10.5% in 2019-2020 to 28.6% in 2020-2021, significantly higher than the state average.

Manchester High School's performance on state assessments is mixed, with the school outperforming the state average in some subject areas, such as American Government and English Language Arts, but lagging behind in others, particularly in Mathematics and Geometry. The school's spending per student for the 2018-2019 school year was $8,980, lower than the state average, which may impact the school's ability to provide resources and support for its students. Additionally, the school's performance on state assessments varies significantly across different student subgroups, suggesting the need to address achievement gaps and ensure equitable outcomes for all 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.
