Lakeside High School

Summary:

Lakeside High School is a public high school in Ashtabula, Ohio, serving grades 8-12 with a total enrollment of 894 students. The school is part of the Ashtabula Area City School District, which is ranked 657 out of 839 districts in Ohio and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Despite its diverse student population, Lakeside High School has consistently ranked in the bottom quarter of Ohio high schools over the past 10 years, placing it in the bottom 25% statewide. The school struggles to support certain student subgroups, ranking in the bottom 30% for African American, Hispanic, multi-racial, English Language Learner, special education, low socioeconomic status, and gifted and talented students. Lakeside High School has also seen a significant increase in chronic absenteeism, rising from 32.1% in 2019-2020 to 54.5% in 2022-2023, well above the state average. The school's four-year graduation rate, while improving, remains below the state average, ranging from 74.7% to 86.6% over the past 5 years.

Interestingly, the nearby Ashtabula County Technical and Career Campus has a significantly different student population, with 89.66% White students and a lower percentage of minority students. This school also has a lower student-teacher ratio, higher free/reduced lunch rate, and higher statewide ranking, suggesting that the demographics and resources of a school can play a significant role in its performance. Addressing the root causes of Lakeside High School's chronic absenteeism and low test scores across multiple subject areas will be crucial for improving overall student outcomes.

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.
