Crooksville High School

Summary:

Crooksville High School is a public high school serving 295 students in grades 9-12 in the small town of Crooksville, Ohio. The school faces several challenges, including low academic performance, high chronic absenteeism, and a need to better serve its predominantly white student population, particularly those from low socioeconomic backgrounds and with special educational needs.

Crooksville High School's academic performance, as measured by state test scores, is consistently below the state average across all subject areas. For example, only 8.3% of students were proficient or better in Algebra I, compared to the state average of 55.9%. The school has also experienced a significant increase in chronic absenteeism, rising from 6.7% in 2019-2020 to 25.3% in 2022-2023. In contrast, the nearby Zanesville Campus, part of the Mid-East Career and Technology Centers district, has a more diverse student population and a lower student-teacher ratio.

Crooksville High School serves a student population with a high percentage of low socioeconomic status students, which is reflected in the school's ranking for this subgroup, which has declined from 504 out of 773 Ohio high schools in 2021-2022 to 601 out of 822 in 2023-2024. The school has also struggled to serve its special education and gifted and talented student populations, with rankings that have declined in recent years. The school's leadership and the broader community should work together to address these challenges and provide a more equitable and high-quality educational experience for all students.

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.
