Baldwin Road Junior High School faces several challenges, including declining academic performance, high chronic absenteeism, and disparities in student group outcomes. The school's proficiency rates in Math and English Language Arts are significantly below the state and district averages across all grade levels. Additionally, the school has experienced a significant increase in chronic absenteeism, rising from 5.9% in 2019-2020 to 35.2% in 2023-2024, which is much higher than the state average and the nearby Pickerington Lakeview Junior High and Waggoner Road Junior High schools.

When comparing Baldwin Road Junior High School to nearby schools, the data reveals that it generally underperforms in academic measures, has higher chronic absenteeism, and serves a more diverse student population. The school's African American and Hispanic students generally perform better than the state averages for their respective groups, while the White and Asian students perform below their state counterparts. To address these issues, the school and district should consider implementing targeted interventions, learning from the practices of higher-performing nearby schools, and addressing the potential underlying factors that may be impacting student 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.
