North Shore High School

Summary:

North Shore High School is a public charter high school located in Garfield Heights, Ohio, serving 214 students in grades 9-12. The school faces significant challenges, including extremely low graduation rates, subpar academic performance, and high chronic absenteeism.

North Shore High School's four-year graduation rates have ranged from only 3.6% in 2021-2022 to 40.0% in 2023-2024, which is significantly lower than the state average and the graduation rates of nearby schools like Cuyahoga Hts High School, which has a 100% graduation rate, and Shaker Hts High School, which has a 93.7% graduation rate. North Shore High School's students also perform significantly below the state average on Ohio State Tests across all subject areas, with proficiency rates often less than half the state average. As a result, the school is ranked 815 out of 864 Ohio high schools and is rated 0 out of 5 stars by SchoolDigger, placing it in the bottom 5% of high schools in the state.

Addressing the root causes of North Shore High School's challenges, such as the extremely high chronic absenteeism rates that reached 100% in the 2020-2021 school year, will be crucial for improving the school's performance. The school's predominantly low-income student population, with 99.5% of students classified as low-income in the 2022-2023 school year, highlights the need for targeted interventions and support to address systemic inequities and ensure all students have access to a high-quality education, regardless of their socioeconomic background.

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.
