Madison-Plains High School stands out for its strong academic performance, consistently scoring above the state average on Ohio State Tests across various subjects, including American Government, American History, Biology, and English II. The school's proficiency rates in these tests are often 10-20 percentage points higher than the state average. Additionally, the school ranks very highly for its performance with special education and gifted/talented students, ranking 90th out of 598 Ohio high schools for special education students and 72nd out of 280 Ohio high schools for gifted and talented students. The school has also maintained a strong four-year graduation rate, ranging from 88.8% to 94.7% over the past five years, which is consistently higher than the state average.

While Madison-Plains High School's academic achievements are commendable, the school faces some challenges, such as a significant increase in chronic absenteeism, rising from 9.2% in 2019-2020 to 54.3% in 2020-2021. This is a concerning trend that the school and district should investigate and address, as high chronic absenteeism can negatively impact student learning and achievement. In comparison, nearby schools like Cedarville High School and Southeastern Senior High School have much lower chronic absenteeism rates, suggesting Madison-Plains High School may have unique challenges to address in this area.

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.
