Marion Local

The Marion Local school district in Ohio is home to two exceptional schools, Marion Local Elementary School and Marion Local High School, which consistently rank among the top schools in the state. Both schools demonstrate exceptional academic performance, with high proficiency rates on state assessments and impressive graduation and attendance rates.

Marion Local Elementary School is ranked 5th out of 1,577 Ohio elementary schools and has a 5-star rating from SchoolDigger. The school's students consistently score proficient or better on state tests in core subjects, and the school has an exceptionally low chronic absenteeism rate of just 1.9%. Marion Local High School is ranked 2nd out of 864 Ohio high schools and also has a 5-star rating. The high school maintains a 100% four-year graduation rate and impressive performance on state end-of-course exams.

Both schools serve a relatively affluent community, with only around 3% of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch. This suggests the district may need to consider ways to ensure equitable access and support for students from lower-income families. Nevertheless, the schools' exceptional performance, low absenteeism rates, and significant resource allocation (with low student-teacher ratios and high per-student spending) indicate a strong commitment to providing a high-quality education to all students in the Marion Local district.
