Genoa Elementary School

Summary:

Genoa Elementary School is a public elementary school serving 287 students in grades K-4 in Massillon, Ohio, which is part of the Perry Local School District. While the school generally performs on par or slightly below nearby schools in the district, it faces some unique challenges, particularly in terms of high chronic absenteeism rates and a relatively disadvantaged student population.

Genoa Elementary has seen a significant increase in chronic absenteeism, rising from 1.3% in 2019-2020 to 16.3% in 2022-2023, which is notably higher than the 0.0% to 8.5% range of nearby schools like Lohr Elementary and T.C. Knapp Elementary. The school's test scores in Mathematics and English Language Arts have been mixed compared to the district and state, with some years of outperformance and others of underperformance. Additionally, Genoa Elementary has a relatively high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch at 54.01%, which is significantly higher than nearby schools like Whipple Heights Elementary (41.54%) and Watson Elementary (42.2%).

Despite these challenges, Genoa Elementary's performance on the 4th grade Mathematics and English Language Arts tests has been more consistent, with the school outperforming the state in most years. This suggests that there may be opportunities for improvement and growth at the school. Additionally, the school's ranking and star rating from SchoolDigger have fluctuated over the years, indicating that the school's performance has been somewhat inconsistent.

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.
