Tri-State STEM+M School

Q: Is Tri-State STEM+M School a good school?

Tri-State STEM+M School ranks 403 rd of 864 Ohio high schools. SchoolDigger rates this school 3 stars out of 5.

Summary:

Tri-State STEM+M School is a public high school located in South Point, Ohio, serving grades 9-12 with a small student population of 74. The school is part of the Lawrence County school district, which is ranked 399 out of 839 districts in Ohio and has a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Tri-State STEM+M School has shown strong academic performance, with high proficiency rates on Ohio state tests across various subjects, such as a 100% proficiency rate in American Government, significantly higher than the statewide average of 69.1%. The school also outperformed the state in Biology and Geometry. Additionally, Tri-State STEM+M School has maintained a 100% four-year graduation rate for the past three school years, which is an impressive achievement. However, the school has experienced fluctuations in chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 5.1% in 2020-2021 to 44.3% in 2021-2022, which is an area the school may want to focus on to improve student engagement and attendance.

While Tri-State STEM+M School has demonstrated strong academic performance, its statewide ranking has declined from 104 out of 836 Ohio high schools in 2021-2022 to 403 out of 864 in 2023-2024. Additionally, the school's performance data shows some interesting differences in the rankings of female and male students, with male students ranking higher than female students. The school's ranking for low socioeconomic status students is also relatively low, suggesting the need for additional support and resources to ensure equitable opportunities for all students. Compared to the nearby Lawrence County school, which has a significantly larger student population and a higher percentage of free and reduced-price lunch recipients, Tri-State STEM+M School may face a different set of challenges and resource needs.

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.
