McComb Local Junior/Senior High School

Summary:

McComb Local Junior/Senior High School is a public high school serving grades 7-12 with 297 students in McComb, Ohio, part of the McComb Local School District. The school stands out for its diverse student population, consistently high graduation rates, and strong academic performance on state tests, though it faces some challenges with increasing chronic absenteeism and supporting underperforming student subgroups.

McComb Local Junior/Senior High School has a relatively diverse student body, with 82.15% White, 16.84% Hispanic, and smaller percentages of other races. This diversity is higher than the nearby McComb Local School Panther Academy, which has a 100% White student population. The school also maintains impressive four-year graduation rates, ranging from 95.7% to 100% over the past four years, significantly exceeding the state average. Academically, the school outperforms the state on Ohio State Tests, with particular strengths in American Government, 7th grade English Language Arts, and English II.

While McComb Local Junior/Senior High School has many positive attributes, it also faces some areas for improvement. Chronic absenteeism has been on the rise, reaching 16.1% in the 2022-2023 school year, which the school should monitor and address. Additionally, the school's performance varies across different student subgroups, with female students and White students outperforming their male and Hispanic peers, respectively. The school may need to investigate the factors behind these gaps and implement targeted interventions. Finally, the school's programming for gifted and talented students is an area of concern, ranking in the bottom half of Ohio high schools for this subgroup, suggesting the need for a review of the school's support for these students.

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.
