Best Public Schools in Zip Code 43935


Summary:

The 43935 zip code area is home to 3 schools serving students from elementary through high school: Anna Marie Ayers Elementary School, Martins Ferry High School, and Martins Ferry Middle School. While the elementary school stands out for its strong academic performance, the middle and high schools face challenges in certain subject areas, particularly math. Socioeconomic factors, such as high rates of free/reduced-price lunch eligibility, may be impacting student outcomes across the district.

Anna Marie Ayers Elementary School is the standout performer, with students exceeding state averages on 3rd and 4th grade math and ELA tests. The school also has a relatively low chronic absenteeism rate of 27% compared to the higher rates at the middle and high schools. In contrast, Martins Ferry High School struggles with math performance, with only 22% proficient in Geometry and 52.8% in Algebra I, despite strong results in American Government and History.

Across the district, attendance is a concern, with chronic absenteeism rates ranging from 20.4% at the middle school to 29.6% at the high school. Additionally, per-student spending varies, with the elementary school spending $8,131 per student compared to the high school's $9,091. These disparities in funding and attendance may contribute to the inconsistent academic performance observed in the district. By addressing these challenges and leveraging the strengths of the elementary school, the Martins Ferry City school district can work towards providing a more equitable and high-quality education for all students.
