Summary:
The Barnesville Exempted Village school district in Ohio is home to a single middle school, Barnesville Middle School, which serves grades 5-8 with a total enrollment of 436 students.
Barnesville Middle School appears to be a standout performer within the state, with significantly higher proficiency rates than the Ohio average in several key areas. The school's science proficiency rates for 5th and 8th grade students are 76.2% and 67.3% respectively, well above the state averages of 64% and 62.1%. Similarly, the school's English Language Arts proficiency rates for 5th and 7th grade students, at 72.3% and 62.1%, also exceed the state averages. Notably, the school's 8th grade math proficiency rate of 57% is notably higher than the state average of 46.3%.
However, the school does have some areas for potential improvement, such as uneven math performance in the earlier middle school grades and a chronic absenteeism rate of 22.8%, which is higher than the state average. Additionally, the school's student population is overwhelmingly White, with only 2.52% of students identifying as non-White, which may impact the diversity of the educational experience. Overall, Barnesville Middle School appears to be a strong performer, particularly in science and certain areas of English Language Arts, but could benefit from a closer examination of its math curriculum and strategies to address chronic absenteeism and promote a more diverse student population.
