Conneaut High School

Summary:

Conneaut High School is a public high school serving grades 8-12 in Conneaut, Ohio, with a total enrollment of 390 students. The school is part of the Conneaut Area City School District, which is ranked 511 out of 839 school districts in Ohio and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Conneaut High School has a predominantly white student population, with 91.28% of students identifying as white, significantly higher than the state average and the nearby Ashtabula County Technical and Career Campus, which has 89.66% white students. The school's four-year graduation rates have fluctuated in recent years, ranging from a low of 77.3% in 2022-2023 to a high of 88.9% in 2023-2024, with the latter being above the state average. However, Conneaut High School has experienced a significant increase in chronic absenteeism, rising from 18.0% in 2019-2020 to 42.8% in 2023-2024, a concerning trend that can negatively impact student academic performance.

Conneaut High School's performance on Ohio State Tests has been mixed, with some subject areas, such as American Government and American History, performing above the state average, while others, like Algebra I and Geometry, have significantly lower proficiency rates compared to the state. Additionally, the school has a relatively high percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, at 52.82% in the 2022-2023 school year, higher than the nearby Ashtabula County Technical and Career Campus, which had a 43.45% free and reduced lunch rate. These factors, along with the school's higher student-teacher ratio compared to the nearby technical school, suggest that Conneaut High School faces challenges in addressing the needs of its diverse student population and improving overall academic 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.
