Summary:
The Adena Local school district in Ohio consists of three schools: Adena Elementary School, Adena Middle School, and Adena High School. While the elementary school stands out as the strongest performer in the district, the district as a whole faces challenges with high chronic absenteeism rates, low test scores, and high economic disadvantages among the student population.
Adena Elementary School shines with relatively high proficiency rates in 4th grade Math and ELA, as well as a lower chronic absenteeism rate compared to the middle and high schools. In contrast, Adena High School stands out for its strong 4-year graduation rate of 94.6%, though its proficiency rates in American Government and English II are closer to or slightly above state averages.
Across the Adena Local district, the student population is predominantly white, and the schools face high rates of chronic absenteeism, low test scores, and high levels of economic disadvantage, as evidenced by the extremely high free/reduced lunch rate at the elementary school. These challenges likely contribute to the district's relatively low state-wide rankings, suggesting a need for the district to closely examine its curriculum, instructional practices, and support systems to improve student learning outcomes.
