Ridgemont High School

Summary:

Ridgemont High School is a public high school located in Mount Victory, Ohio, serving grades 6-12 with a total enrollment of 212 students. The school is part of the Ridgemont Local School District, which is ranked 396 out of 839 districts in Ohio and has a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Ridgemont High School has a predominantly white student population, with over 92% of students identifying as white, which is significantly higher than the state average and the nearby Ohio High-Point school, which has a more diverse student body. The school has maintained a 100% four-year graduation rate for the past four school years, an impressive achievement. However, Ridgemont High School has experienced a concerning increase in chronic absenteeism, rising from 7.5% in 2019-2020 to 35.3% in 2021-2022, which is a significant issue that the school should address.

Ridgemont High School's performance on state assessments is mixed, with the school excelling in certain subject areas, such as American History and Biology, but struggling in others, particularly in Mathematics, where proficiency rates are significantly lower than the state average. The school's statewide ranking has also fluctuated over the years, with a general downward trend, suggesting that the school may be facing challenges in maintaining its academic performance compared to other schools in the state. Additionally, the school's performance in serving its gifted and talented student population is an area of concern, with the school ranking 187 out of 280 Ohio high schools in 2023-2024 and only 1 out of 5 stars from SchoolDigger in the 2022-2023 school year.

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.
