Winton Hills Academy

Summary:

Winton Hills Academy is an elementary school in Cincinnati, Ohio, serving around 340 students in grades PK-6. The school is part of the Cincinnati Public Schools district, which has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Winton Hills Academy faces significant challenges, particularly in terms of chronic absenteeism and academic performance. The school has consistently high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 62.5% to 76.4% over the past four school years, which is significantly higher than the state and district averages. Academically, the school's proficiency rates on Ohio state tests are consistently lower than the state and district averages across all grade levels and subject areas. For example, in the 2023-2024 school year, the school's 5th-grade science proficiency rate was 9.5%, compared to 38.4% for the district and 64% for the state. The school's performance is especially low in mathematics, with proficiency rates ranging from 7.1% to 42.9% across different grade levels.

Interestingly, the nearby schools, such as St. Bernard-Elmwood Place Elementary School and Parker Woods Montessori School, generally perform better than Winton Hills Academy on academic measures, with higher proficiency rates and better rankings. For instance, Parker Woods Montessori School's 5th-grade science proficiency rate was 49.2% in 2023-2024, compared to Winton Hills Academy's 9.5%. Despite the school's higher per-student spending and relatively low student-teacher ratio, the challenges at Winton Hills Academy suggest the need for targeted interventions and support to address the issues and improve 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.
