Brookwood Elementary School

Summary:

Brookwood Elementary School is a public elementary school in Hamilton, Ohio, serving 601 students from kindergarten to 6th grade. The school is part of the Hamilton City School District, which is ranked 546 out of 839 districts in Ohio and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Brookwood Elementary generally performs better than the district and state in academic subjects, with higher proficiency rates in Mathematics and English Language Arts compared to nearby schools like Crawford Woods Elementary and Riverview Elementary. However, the school has faced challenges with chronic absenteeism, which has fluctuated from 9.3% to 35.9% over the past few years, and its statewide ranking has declined from 735 out of 1,676 Ohio elementary schools in 2018-2019 to 829 out of 1,596 in 2022-2023.

While Brookwood Elementary outperforms the district and state in many areas, it is not the top-performing school in the immediate vicinity. Schools like Highland Elementary and Ridgeway Elementary have higher academic proficiency rates and lower chronic absenteeism rates. Brookwood could focus on addressing its chronic absenteeism and exploring ways to support its multi-racial and disabled student populations to improve their 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.
