Chesapeake Elementary School

Summary:

Chesapeake Elementary School is a public elementary school serving 488 students in grades PK-4 in Chesapeake, Ohio, which is part of the Chesapeake Union Exempted Village School District. The school consistently outperforms state and district averages on Ohio State Tests, with 77.6% of 3rd graders and 93.6% of 4th graders proficient or better in Mathematics, compared to state averages of 62.1% and 67.2%, respectively. Similarly, the school had 84.2% of 3rd graders and 92.3% of 4th graders proficient or better in English Language Arts, compared to state averages of 64.5% and 64.1%.

Chesapeake Elementary School also excels in supporting various student subgroups, ranking 33 out of 1,466 Ohio elementary schools for female students and 26 out of 1,484 for low socioeconomic status students in the 2023-2024 school year, both receiving a 5-star rating from SchoolDigger. While the school experienced a spike in chronic absenteeism during the COVID-19 pandemic, reaching 20.4% in 2022-2023, the rate has since decreased to 12.8% in 2023-2024, which is still lower than the state average.

Chesapeake Elementary School has demonstrated a steady improvement in its statewide ranking, moving from 949 out of 1,687 Ohio elementary schools in 2013-2014 to 144 out of 1,577 in 2023-2024, with a 5-star rating from SchoolDigger. This consistent academic growth is commendable, and the school's ability to address challenges like chronic absenteeism is also noteworthy. However, the school's predominantly white student population, which is higher than the state average and surrounding schools, may present an opportunity to explore ways to increase diversity and promote inclusive practices within the school 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.
