Milford Junior High School students consistently outperform the state average on Ohio State Tests across various subjects and grade levels, including science, mathematics, and English language arts. The school's proficiency rates in Algebra I and Geometry end-of-course exams are particularly impressive, with over 99% of students scoring proficient or better. The school has also shown strong performance across various student subgroups, including African American, Hispanic, and low socioeconomic status students, often ranking among the top schools in the state for these groups. However, the school's performance for students with disabilities has been relatively weaker, with the school ranking in the bottom half of Ohio middle schools in this category.

While Milford Junior High School's academic performance is generally stronger than the nearby Clermont Northeastern Middle School and West Clermont Middle School, the school lags behind some of the higher-performing nearby schools, such as Sycamore Junior High School, Madeira Middle School, and Indian Hill Middle School, which have consistently higher rankings and proficiency rates. Additionally, the school has experienced a significant increase in chronic absenteeism rates, rising from 6.9% in the 2019-2020 school year to 25.7% in the 2020-2021 school year, which is an area of concern.

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.
