Summary:
Newton Falls Exempted Village in Ohio has a single high school, Newton Falls High School, which serves grades 9-12. The school faces some academic challenges, with mixed performance on state tests, but maintains a strong 94.7% four-year graduation rate despite a high chronic absenteeism rate of 52.2% and a student population that is predominantly economically disadvantaged, with 88.42% eligible for free or reduced-price lunch.
Academically, Newton Falls High School's performance on Ohio State Tests varies significantly across different subject areas. While the school performs above the state average in American Government, it lags behind the state average in several other core subjects, such as American History, Biology, English II, Geometry, and Algebra I. This variability in academic achievement suggests the school may need to focus on improving instruction and support in the weaker subject areas.
Despite the academic challenges, Newton Falls Exempted Village appears to provide adequate resources to the high school, with a spending of $9,367 per student and a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 13.8. However, the data indicates that these resources may not be effectively utilized or targeted to address the specific needs of the student population, which faces significant socioeconomic challenges. Addressing the high chronic absenteeism rate and targeting interventions to support economically disadvantaged students could be key focus areas for the school and district to improve overall student success.
