Xenia High School

Summary:

Xenia High School is a public high school in Xenia, Ohio, serving 985 students in grades 9-12. The school is part of the Xenia Community City School District, which is ranked 479 out of 839 districts in Ohio and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Xenia High School has a predominantly white student population, with 71.37% of students identifying as white, which is higher than the state average and the nearby Greene County Career Center, which has an 87.15% white student population. Academically, the school's performance on state tests is generally below the state average, with proficiency rates ranging from 24.7% in Geometry to 70.7% in American Government, compared to the state averages of 39.8% and 69.1%, respectively. However, the school has seen a steady improvement in its four-year graduation rate, increasing from 81.4% in 2019-2020 to 89.4% in 2023-2024, though still slightly below the state average. Concerning is the significant increase in chronic absenteeism, rising from 18.8% in 2019-2020 to 43.8% in 2023-2024, which may impact student learning and academic outcomes.

Xenia High School's performance varies significantly across different student subgroups, with the school ranking 108 out of 318 Ohio high schools for its African American students, but only 567 out of 754 for its white students. This suggests the school may need to focus on addressing achievement gaps and providing targeted support for underperforming subgroups. Additionally, the school has a relatively high percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, at 48.22% in the 2022-2023 school year, indicating a significant proportion of students come from low-income households, which can impact academic performance and other outcomes. Comparing Xenia High School to the nearby Greene County Career Center, a vocational high school, reveals a significantly different student population and performance profile, which may offer valuable insights for Xenia High School to consider.

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.
