The school is part of the Centerville City School District, which is ranked 146 out of 839 districts in Ohio and has a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger. Centerville High School has consistently maintained a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger over the past decade, indicating its strong academic performance.

Centerville High School consistently performs well on state assessments, with high proficiency rates across various subjects. For example, in the 2023-2024 school year, the school had 86.9% proficiency in English II, 87% in Biology, and 80.3% in American Government, all of which are significantly higher than the state averages. The school also maintains a high four-year graduation rate, ranging from 95.0% to 98.0% over the past few years, which is well above the state average. Centerville High School outperforms many of the nearby schools, such as Belmont High School, which has significantly lower proficiency rates and a much lower graduation rate.

While Centerville High School has generally low chronic absenteeism rates, the trend has been increasing in recent years, reaching 20.7% in the 2023-2024 school year. This is an area that the school may want to focus on to ensure continued academic success. Additionally, the school has a relatively low percentage of students from low socioeconomic backgrounds, with only 14.63% of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch in the 2022-2023 school year. This suggests that the school may need to consider strategies to support students from disadvantaged backgrounds.

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.
