Centerburg High School

Summary:

Centerburg High School is a public high school serving 299 students in grades 9-12 in Centerburg, Ohio, which is part of the Knox County JVSD district. The school consistently performs well academically, with higher proficiency rates than the state average, but faces challenges with increasing chronic absenteeism and a decline in graduation rates.

Centerburg High School has a predominantly white student population, with 89.3% of students identifying as white, which is higher than the state average and the nearby Knox County Career Center. The school's academic performance is strong, with a 90.8% proficiency rate in American History, compared to the state average of 68.5%. However, the school has seen a significant increase in chronic absenteeism, rising from 10.2% in 2019-2020 to 31.2% in 2022-2023, which is an area of concern.

Compared to the nearby Knox County Career Center, Centerburg High School has a more homogeneous student population, higher academic performance, and a lower student-teacher ratio. This suggests that Centerburg High School may be providing a more traditional high school experience, while the Knox County Career Center may be offering more specialized vocational and technical education. The school's ranking for gifted and talented students has fluctuated over the years, indicating that the school may need to evaluate its programming and support for its high-achieving 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.
