High Schools in Lancaster City

There is only one high school located in Lancaster City, Ohio - Lancaster High School. This school serves grades 9-12 and has an enrollment of 1,848 students, with a predominantly White student population. While the school's academic performance is mixed compared to state averages, with some subject areas exceeding expectations and others falling behind, it maintains a slightly above-average four-year graduation rate of 89.9%.

One of the key challenges facing Lancaster High School is its high chronic absenteeism rate of 40.8%, which is significantly higher than the state average. This, coupled with the school's relatively low socioeconomic status, as indicated by the high percentage of students (52.6%) eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, may contribute to the school's academic performance challenges. Despite these obstacles, Lancaster High School maintains a consistent ranking and 2-star rating on the SchoolDigger scale, suggesting that its performance has remained relatively stable over the past few years.

Overall, Lancaster High School faces a mix of academic performance, socioeconomic, and attendance-related challenges that may require targeted interventions and support to improve student outcomes. While the school's performance has remained consistent, there is room for improvement in areas such as academic achievement, attendance, and resource allocation to better serve the needs of the Lancaster City community.
