Slate Ridge Elementary faces several key challenges, including consistently below-average academic performance compared to the Reynoldsburg City and Ohio state averages across all grade levels and subjects. For example, in the 2023-2024 school year, the percentage of 5th-grade students proficient or better in Science was 43.8% at Slate Ridge, compared to 51% for Reynoldsburg City and 64% for the state. Additionally, the school has experienced a significant increase in chronic absenteeism, rising from 8.7% in 2019-2020 to 32.2% in 2022-2023, which is much higher than the state average of 16.8%. Slate Ridge's statewide ranking has also declined over the years, from a high of 285 out of 1,687 Ohio elementary schools in 2013-2014 to 1,093 out of 1,577 in 2023-2024, with a consistent 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

While Slate Ridge's performance is generally lower than the Reynoldsburg City and Ohio state averages, some nearby schools, such as Violet Elementary in the Pickerington Local district, demonstrate higher academic achievement and lower chronic absenteeism rates. Examining the practices and strategies of these higher-performing schools could provide valuable insights for Slate Ridge as it works to address the various challenges it is facing.

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.
