Groveport Community School

Summary:

Groveport Community School is a public charter elementary school serving grades K-8 in Groveport, Ohio, with a diverse student population. However, the school has consistently been ranked in the bottom quarter of Ohio elementary schools, receiving a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger for the past several years.

Groveport Community School faces significant challenges, including high chronic absenteeism rates, consistently below-average test scores across all grade levels and subject areas, and varying performance among student subgroups. For example, in the 2023-2024 school year, the school's proficiency rates ranged from 17.8% to 55.8% in mathematics and 23.1% to 66.2% in English Language Arts, compared to the state averages of 46.3% to 67.2% in mathematics and 49.4% to 70.6% in English Language Arts. Additionally, the school's per-student spending of $5,640 in the 2018-2019 school year was lower than the nearby Groveport Madison Local public schools, which range from $8,813 to $11,228 per student.

In comparison, the nearby Groveport Elementary, Asbury Elementary, and Madison Elementary schools, which are part of the Groveport Madison Local district, have higher test scores, lower chronic absenteeism rates, and better overall rankings from SchoolDigger. This suggests that Groveport Community School may be facing challenges in terms of funding, resources, and student engagement that are impacting its academic performance.

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.
