Fayette Junior/Senior High School

Summary:

Fayette Junior/Senior High School is a public school in Fayette, Ohio, serving grades 7-12 with a total enrollment of 141 students. The school has a predominantly White student population (82.98%), with significant Hispanic representation (12.06%) and smaller percentages of Asian (2.13%) and students of two or more races (2.84%).

One of the school's key strengths is its consistently high four-year graduation rates, ranging from 88.2% to 100% over the past five years, exceeding the state average. However, the school's performance on Ohio State Tests varies, with above-average scores in some subjects like American Government and American History, but lagging behind in Mathematics for 7th and 8th grades. Additionally, the school has experienced a concerning increase in chronic absenteeism, rising from 7.7% in 2019-2020 to 25.4% in 2023-2024, which is an area that requires attention. The school also has a high percentage of students from low socioeconomic backgrounds, with 97.87% qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch.

Compared to the nearby Four County Career Center, which has a significantly larger student population and a more racially homogeneous student body, Fayette Junior/Senior High School faces unique challenges. While Four County Career Center has a lower percentage of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch (35.01%), Fayette Junior/Senior High School's performance for low socioeconomic status students is higher than the overall school ranking, indicating the school's efforts to provide additional support and resources for this population.

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.
