Summary:
The 45879 zip code area has only one high school, Paulding High School, which serves grades 9-12. This school faces a mix of strengths and challenges, with its predominantly White student population (84.77%) and high percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch (88.22%) indicating potential socioeconomic challenges that may impact academic performance.
Academically, Paulding High School performs above the state average in American Government and American History, but struggles in subjects like Biology, English II, and Geometry, where proficiency rates are significantly below the state averages. The school's performance in Algebra I is slightly below the Paulding Exempted Village district average but above the state average, suggesting an area for potential improvement. Despite these academic challenges, the school maintains a strong 95.3% four-year graduation rate, though its 18.1% chronic absenteeism rate is relatively high.
With a student-teacher ratio of 18.9 to 1 and per-student spending of $10,050, Paulding High School may face resource constraints that contribute to its academic performance challenges. Addressing these areas of improvement, such as strengthening proficiency in weaker subject areas and reducing chronic absenteeism, could help the school enhance its overall academic performance and provide a more equitable learning experience for its students.
