Anthony Wayne High School consistently performs well academically, with significantly higher proficiency rates on Ohio state tests compared to the state average. For example, in the 2023-2024 school year, the school had 86.5% proficiency in American Government, 79.9% in Biology, and 84.8% in English II, all well above the state averages. The school also maintains an impressive four-year graduation rate, ranging from 97.2% to 98.4% over the past five years, significantly higher than the state average. However, the school's student population is predominantly white, with only 2.04% African American, 1.21% Hispanic, and 1.89% Asian students. Additionally, the school has a relatively low percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, at 11.48% in the 2022-2023 school year, indicating a relatively high socioeconomic status of the student population.

While Anthony Wayne High School's overall academic performance is strong, there are some notable disparities in the performance of different racial groups.

However, the ranking for Hispanic students is lower, indicating a potential area for improvement. In comparison, the nearby Penta Career Center, which serves a more diverse student population with a higher percentage of free or reduced-price lunch recipients, has a lower student-teacher ratio and a different academic focus compared to Anthony Wayne High School.

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.
