North Ridgeville High School

Summary:

North Ridgeville High School is a public high school serving 1,268 students in grades 9-12 in North Ridgeville, Ohio, which is part of the North Ridgeville City School District. The school has consistently strong academic performance, with proficiency rates exceeding state averages in several core subjects, and a high four-year graduation rate.

North Ridgeville High School has a predominantly white student population, with 86.2% of students identifying as white. The school has a relatively low percentage of African American (2.21%) and Asian (1.97%) students, but a higher percentage of Hispanic students (6.78%) compared to the state average. The school has performed exceptionally well in certain student subgroups, such as Hispanic students (ranked 15th out of 273 Ohio high schools in 2023-2024) and multi-racial students (ranked 15th out of 242 Ohio high schools in 2023-2024). However, the school's performance in the gifted and talented student subgroup has declined, ranking 278th out of 312 Ohio high schools in 2021-2022.

While North Ridgeville High School's academic performance is strong, the school has experienced a significant increase in chronic absenteeism, rising from 8.7% in 2019-2020 to 28.5% in 2023-2024, which is significantly higher than the state average. This trend is in contrast to the nearby Midview Virtual Programming school, which has a similar racial makeup but a much higher chronic absenteeism rate of 57.5%. The school and district should continue to monitor and address the increasing chronic absenteeism rates to ensure all students are able to fully benefit from the high-quality education provided at North Ridgeville High School.

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.
