West Clermont High School has a predominantly white student population, with 85.12% of students identifying as white, which is higher than the state average and the nearby Live Oaks Cdc, which has a 92.23% white student population. The school has consistently performed above the state average on Ohio State Tests, with higher proficiency rates in subjects like American Government, American History, and Biology.

West Clermont High School has maintained a strong four-year graduation rate, ranging from 89.6% to 92.8% over the past five years, which is higher than the state average. Unfortunately, the school has seen a significant increase in chronic absenteeism, rising from 22.1% in 2019-2020 to 43.8% in 2023-2024, which is a concerning trend.

West Clermont High School has shown strong performance for some student subgroups, such as Asian students and African American students, but struggles with the performance of male students, special education students, and low socioeconomic status students, who rank lower compared to their peers statewide. These disparities in performance between different student subgroups indicate the need for targeted interventions and support to ensure all students have equal opportunities for success.

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.
