Weisenborn Junior High faces several challenges, including lower academic performance compared to the state and local district averages, as measured by state test scores. The school's proficiency rates in Math and English Language Arts were significantly below the state and Huber Heights City averages in the 2023-2024 school year. Additionally, Weisenborn Junior High has experienced high rates of chronic absenteeism, reaching 37.9% in the 2021-2022 school year, which is significantly higher than the state average. When comparing the school's performance across different student subgroups, Weisenborn Junior High ranks particularly low for White students and Gifted and Talented students, indicating potential equity concerns.

Weisenborn Junior High's academic performance is generally lower than the nearby high-performing schools, such as Oakwood Junior High School, which consistently ranks among the top middle schools in Ohio. This suggests that Weisenborn Junior High may face unique challenges in supporting student achievement. Addressing the high rates of chronic absenteeism and ensuring adequate resources and funding could be key strategies for the school to improve its overall performance and outcomes.

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.
