Girard Intermediate Middle School

Summary:

Girard Intermediate Middle School is a public middle school serving grades 4-6 in the Girard City School District in Girard, Ohio, with a student population of 363 as of the 2022-2023 school year.

The school generally performs better than the state average on Ohio State Tests, particularly in Science and English Language Arts, with 70% of 5th-grade students proficient or better in Science in 2023-2024, compared to the state average of 64%. However, the school's Mathematics scores lag behind the state, with only 44.7% of 6th-grade students proficient or better in 2023-2024, compared to the state average of 50.1%. Girard Intermediate Middle School has a relatively low student-teacher ratio, ranging from 13.1 to 14.8 over the past three school years, lower than the nearby Girard Junior High School (15.9) and some other nearby middle schools.

One area of concern is the school's high chronic absenteeism rates, which have risen from 8.3% in 2019-2020 to 33.0% in 2022-2023, notably higher than the state average of 17.3% in 2020-2021. The school's spending per student of $8,244 in 2018-2019 is also lower than the state average and some of the nearby middle schools, such as Hubbard Middle School and Howland Middle School, which may be a factor in the school's performance.

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.
