Weller Elementary consistently performs above the state and district averages on Ohio State Tests, particularly in Mathematics, where 93.8% of 4th-grade students and 83.1% of 5th-grade students scored proficient or better in 2023-2024, significantly higher than the Centerville City and state averages. The school's English Language Arts performance is also impressive, with 89% of 5th-grade students scoring proficient or better, compared to the Centerville City score of 86.7% and the Ohio state score of 70.6%.

While Weller Elementary consistently outperforms nearby schools in the Centerville City School District, such as Dr. John Hole Elementary, Driscoll Elementary, and Stingley Elementary, some nearby schools, like Five Points in the Springboro Community City School District, also demonstrate strong academic performance. Weller Elementary's relatively low percentage of free and reduced-price lunch recipients (10.15% in 2022-2023) may contribute to its strong academic performance, as research has shown a correlation between socioeconomic status and educational 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.
