Summary:
The 44615 zip code area is home to two schools - Carrollton High School-Carrollton Middle School and Carrollton Elementary School, both part of the Carrollton Exempted Village district. While the high school-middle school combination stands out for its strong academic performance and high graduation rates, the elementary school faces more mixed results and a higher proportion of economically disadvantaged students.
Carrollton High School-Carrollton Middle School impresses with a 95.3% four-year graduation rate, significantly higher than the state average, and generally above-average performance on state assessments, particularly in subjects like American Government, American History, and Biology. However, the school's chronic absenteeism rate of 28.1% is an area for improvement. In contrast, Carrollton Elementary School has a more mixed academic performance, with some grades and subjects exceeding state averages while others fall below. The elementary school also has a higher proportion of economically disadvantaged students, with 56.83% of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch.
Both schools have a predominantly white student population, with over 93% of students identifying as white. This lack of diversity may be an area for the district to consider addressing. Additionally, the significant difference in spending per student between the high school ($11,797) and the elementary school ($20,781) is noteworthy and may warrant further investigation. The student-teacher ratios for both schools, at 19.3 for the high school and 20.5 for the elementary school, are relatively high and could be an area for improvement to provide more individualized attention to students.
