Summary:
Colerain High School is a public high school in Cincinnati, Ohio, serving 1,747 students in grades 9-12. The school is part of the Northwest Local School District, which is ranked 541 out of 839 districts in Ohio and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.
Colerain High School has a diverse student population, with a racial makeup of 46.31% White, 33.89% African American, 5.55% Hispanic, 3.95% Asian, and 10.07% two or more races. However, the school's academic performance, as measured by state test scores, is generally lower than the state and district averages. For example, in the 2023-2024 school year, the school's proficiency rates were below the state and district averages in subjects like Geometry, Algebra I, and Biology. Despite this, Colerain High School has maintained relatively high four-year graduation rates, ranging from 90.5% in 2019-2020 to 94.2% in 2020-2021, which are generally higher than the state and district averages. The school has also experienced a significant increase in chronic absenteeism, rising from 18.1% in 2019-2020 to 57.4% in 2020-2021, which is a concerning trend that may impact student learning and academic outcomes.
When compared to the nearby Diamond Oaks Cdc, which is part of the Great Oaks Career Campuses district, Colerain High School has a significantly different student population and performance profile. Diamond Oaks Cdc has a higher percentage of White students, lower free and reduced-price lunch rates, and a lower student-teacher ratio, which may contribute to its potentially better academic outcomes. This comparison highlights the challenges Colerain High School faces in addressing achievement gaps among different student subgroups and the chronic absenteeism issue, which should be priorities for the school and district.
