Rees E. Price Academy

Summary:

Rees E. Price Academy is an elementary school in Cincinnati, Ohio, serving 503 students in grades PK-7. The school is part of the Cincinnati Public Schools district, which has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Rees E. Price Academy faces significant challenges, including consistently high chronic absenteeism rates, well below average academic performance on state tests, and a statewide ranking in the bottom 20% of Ohio elementary schools. The school's academic struggles are particularly pronounced for specific student subgroups, such as White students, English Language Learners, and students with disabilities. Nearby schools in the district, like Covedale School, Dater Montessori School, and Carson School, generally perform better on academic measures, though they still struggle to meet state and district averages.

The school's high-poverty student population and lower per-student spending compared to nearby schools may contribute to the challenges faced by Rees E. Price Academy. However, the data suggests potential opportunities for improvement, such as targeted interventions for specific subgroups, addressing chronic absenteeism, and exploring best practices from higher-performing schools within the district or state.

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.
