Elementary Schools in Nelsonville-York City

The Nelsonville-York City school district has only one elementary school, Nelsonville-York Elementary School, which serves students from kindergarten through 5th grade. The school's academic performance is generally below the state average, with test scores lagging in several key subjects. Additionally, the school faces challenges with high chronic absenteeism rates and a lack of diversity in its student population.

Nelsonville-York Elementary School's test scores are mixed, with some areas performing better than the state average, such as 4th grade math proficiency, but others significantly underperforming, like 3rd grade English Language Arts. The school's overall ranking has also declined in recent years, dropping from 1,053 out of 1,588 Ohio elementary schools in 2021-2022 to 900 out of 1,577 in 2023-2024. This suggests the school is struggling to keep pace with other elementary schools in the state.

Additionally, the school faces challenges with high chronic absenteeism, with a rate of 27.9% in 2023-2024, which is significantly higher than the state average. The school also has a lack of diversity in its student population, with 91.98% of students identifying as White. This lack of diversity may impact the school's ability to provide a well-rounded educational experience. Finally, the school's spending per student of $8,618 in 2018-2019 is lower than the national average, which could be a constraint on the resources and support available to students.
