Mt. Airy School

Summary:

Mt. Airy School is an elementary school in Cincinnati, Ohio, serving 569 students in grades PK-6 as part of the Cincinnati Public Schools district. The school faces several challenges, including high chronic absenteeism, low academic performance, and struggles to serve the needs of diverse student subgroups.

Mt. Airy School has consistently high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 54.0% to 76.1% over the past few years, which is much higher than the surrounding schools like Parker Woods Montessori School and Monfort Heights Elementary School, which have significantly better academic performance and lower chronic absenteeism rates. The school's proficiency rates on Ohio State Tests are generally lower than the Cincinnati Public Schools district and the state of Ohio averages across all grade levels and subject areas.

While Mt. Airy School's higher spending per student of $11,813 in 2018-2019 suggests a commitment to resources, the data indicates that these resources may not be effectively translating into improved student outcomes. The school ranks in the bottom quartile of Ohio elementary schools for most student subgroups, including female students, male students, English Language Learners, and students with disabilities. Addressing these issues should be a priority for the school and the district to ensure that all students at Mt. Airy School have the opportunity to succeed.

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.
