Summary:
The Tri-County North Local school district in Ohio has only one middle school, Tri-County North Middle School, which serves students in grades 5-8. Despite its strong academic performance, particularly in Mathematics and English Language Arts, the school's ranking has declined over the past three years, and it faces challenges with a high chronic absenteeism rate.
Tri-County North Middle School demonstrates impressive proficiency rates on Ohio State Tests, often exceeding both district and state averages. In the 2023-2024 school year, the school's proficiency rates were 55.8% in 5th grade Science, 63% in 8th grade Science, and 100% in Algebra I. However, the school's ranking has dropped from 315 out of 1,017 Ohio middle schools in 2021-2022 to 412 out of 1,046 in 2023-2024, suggesting there may be other factors impacting its performance.
One area of concern is the school's chronic absenteeism rate of 19.1% in 2023-2024, which is relatively high and could negatively impact student learning and academic outcomes. Additionally, the school's student population is predominantly White (96.31%), with very low representation of other racial and ethnic groups, which may be an area for the school and district to address in order to provide a more diverse and inclusive educational experience for all students.
