Shawnee Elementary School

Summary:

Shawnee Elementary School is a public elementary school in Xenia, Ohio, serving 467 students from kindergarten to 5th grade. The school is part of the Xenia Community City District, which is ranked 479 out of 839 school districts in Ohio and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Shawnee Elementary School has faced several challenges, including a significant increase in chronic absenteeism, from 13.0% in 2019-2020 to 38.9% in 2021-2022 and 2022-2023, which is notably higher than the state and district averages. The school's test scores in mathematics and English language arts have generally been below the district and state averages, with particularly low proficiency rates in 3rd-grade mathematics and English language arts. However, the school has seen relatively strong performance from certain student subgroups, such as African American students, students with disabilities, and low socioeconomic status students.

When compared to other elementary schools in the area, such as Valley Elementary School, Mills Lawn Elementary School, and Fairbrook Elementary School, Shawnee Elementary School generally performs below average, particularly in core academic areas. Addressing the root causes of the school's challenges, such as high chronic absenteeism, and learning from the strategies of higher-performing schools in the Beavercreek City, Yellow Springs Exempted Village, Cedar Cliff Local, and Xenia Community City districts, could present opportunities for targeted interventions and collaborative learning to drive improvement at Shawnee Elementary School.

As you review the school rankings data, please be aware that some of the information from certain demographics is missing. The reason for this omission is that the data has been redacted from the source data itself due to low population samples in these specific demographic groups.

Redacting data from low population samples is a necessary step to ensure the reliability and accuracy of the results, as small sample sizes may not be representative of the broader population. Additionally, this measure helps protect the privacy of individuals belonging to these demographic groups.

About Students eligible for discounted/free lunch:

The National School Lunch Program (NSLP) provides low-cost or free meals to students in U.S. public and nonprofit private schools based on household income. Those with incomes below 130% of the poverty line receive free lunch, while those between 130% and 185% qualify for reduced-price lunch. The percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch serves as a marker for poverty, as it reflects the socioeconomic status of families in a given school or district. A higher FRPL rate typically indicates a higher concentration of low-income families, suggesting that the school or district may face additional challenges in providing adequate resources and support for student success.

About Student-Teacher Ratio

Student/teacher ratio is calculated by dividing the total number of students by the total number of full-time equivalent teachers. Please note that a smaller student/teacher ratio does not necessarily translate to smaller class size. In some instances, schools hire teachers part time, and some teachers are hired for specialized instruction with very small class sizes. These and other factors contribute to the student/teacher ratio. Note: For private schools, Student/teacher ratio may not include Pre-Kindergarten.
