Springfield School Of Innovation

Summary:

The Springfield School Of Innovation is a public high school serving 187 students in grades 9-12 in Springfield, OH. Despite its small size, the school has struggled with extremely low graduation rates, high chronic absenteeism, and academic performance well below state and district averages.

The school's 4-year graduation rate was only 2.9% in 2020-2021, a fraction of the 89.1% rate at the nearby Springfield-Clark County high school. Chronic absenteeism reached 69% in 2021-2022, more than double the state average. Academically, only 20% of students were proficient or better in English II, compared to the state average of 61.4%. The school's low socioeconomic status likely contributes to these challenges.

While the Springfield School Of Innovation faces significant hurdles, comparing its performance to the higher-achieving Springfield-Clark County district may provide valuable insights for improvement. Addressing the school's resource constraints, student engagement, and the specific needs of different student groups could be crucial steps in helping the Springfield School Of Innovation better serve its community.

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.
