Mineral Ridge High School

Summary:

Mineral Ridge High School is a public high school serving grades 7-12 in Mineral Ridge, Ohio, with a student population of around 430. The school is part of the Weathersfield Local School District, which is ranked 73 out of 839 districts in Ohio and has a 5-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Mineral Ridge High School consistently performs well on state assessments, with high proficiency rates across various subjects and grade levels. For example, in the 2023-2024 school year, the school had 95.2% proficiency in Algebra I, 88.9% in American Government, and 91.4% in American History, all significantly higher than the state averages. The school also maintains excellent graduation rates, with a 4-year graduation rate of 92.6% in the 2023-2024 school year, well above the state average. Additionally, Mineral Ridge High School serves a relatively diverse student population, with 38.37% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch in the 2022-2023 school year, and the school's performance for this subgroup is particularly noteworthy, ranking 12th out of 822 Ohio high schools in the 2023-2024 school year.

Compared to nearby schools, Mineral Ridge High School outperforms many of them in academic metrics, graduation rates, and student group performance. For example, River Gate High School, located just 6.57 miles away, has significantly lower proficiency rates, a 26.5% graduation rate, and a 98% chronic absenteeism rate, highlighting the stark contrast in educational outcomes. However, Mineral Ridge High School's increasing chronic absenteeism rate, from 7.5% in 2019-2020 to 25.3% in the 2023-2024 school year, is an area that the school may want to monitor and address to ensure continued academic success. Additionally, the school's performance for gifted and talented students has been more variable, suggesting the need to evaluate its programming and support for this student population.

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.
