Summary:
The 45767 zip code area is home to two schools - Frontier High/Middle School, serving grades 7-12, and Matamoras Elementary School, serving grades K-6. While both schools have some strengths, they also face challenges that require attention to ensure the best possible educational outcomes for their students.
Frontier High/Middle School stands out for its relatively high four-year graduation rate of 92.2%, which is above the state average. However, the school's performance on state tests is mixed, with some subject areas scoring above the state average and others below. Additionally, the school has a concerning chronic absenteeism rate of 36.9%. In contrast, Matamoras Elementary School has a very high percentage of students (80.77%) eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a high level of economic disadvantage in the community. The school's academic performance is also mixed, with some subject areas scoring above the state average and others below.
Both schools have relatively low student-teacher ratios, which could be a positive factor, but they also share the challenge of high chronic absenteeism rates. Additionally, the racial homogeneity of the student populations, with over 97% of students being White, may impact the educational experiences and perspectives of the students. To address these issues, the Frontier Local district should consider targeted interventions and support to improve academic performance, address absenteeism, and ensure equitable distribution of resources across the schools.
