Milford Senior High School

Summary:

Milford Senior High School is a public high school in Milford, Ohio, serving around 1,850 students in grades 9-12. The school is part of the Great Oaks Career Campuses district, which is ranked 159 out of 839 school districts in Ohio and has a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Milford Senior High School consistently performs well above the state average on Ohio State Tests, with proficiency rates ranging from 54.4% to 89.6% across various subject areas. The school's performance is also significantly higher than the district and state averages, and its statewide ranking has improved over the years, moving from 324 out of 836 Ohio high schools in 2018-2019 to 158 out of 864 in 2023-2024, placing it in the top 18% of Ohio high schools. Additionally, Milford Senior High School has maintained an impressive four-year graduation rate, ranging from 96.1% to 98.4% over the past five school years, which is significantly higher than the state average.

However, the racial composition of Milford Senior High School is not representative of the broader community, with 88.27% of students identifying as White in the 2022-2023 school year, and a relatively low percentage of minority students. This racial imbalance is also observed in the nearby Live Oaks Cdc school, which has a similar racial composition. Furthermore, Milford Senior High School serves a relatively affluent community, with only 15.3% of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch in the 2022-2023 school year, suggesting the need for the school and district to address issues of equity and inclusion to ensure that all students have access to a quality education.

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.
