Eastern High School

Summary:

Eastern High School is a public high school serving 331 students in grades 9-12 in the rural town of Sardinia, Ohio. The school has a strong academic performance, consistently outpacing the state average on Ohio State Tests across multiple subjects. With a four-year graduation rate ranging from 92.6% to 94.7% over the past five years, Eastern High School is highly successful in supporting its students to completion.

Despite having a relatively high percentage of students from low socioeconomic backgrounds, Eastern High School has consistently ranked in the top 20% of Ohio high schools serving this population, indicating the school's effectiveness in supporting its economically disadvantaged students. However, the school's lack of racial diversity, with 98.49% of students identifying as White, is a notable characteristic. The school's proximity to the Ohio Valley Career & Technical Center and the Southern Hills Career Technical Center provides students with additional educational and vocational opportunities beyond the traditional high school curriculum.

While Eastern High School's overall performance is strong, the school faces some challenges, such as fluctuating rankings, increasing chronic absenteeism, and disparities in the performance of certain student subgroups. The school's ranking for disabled students is significantly lower than for other subgroups, suggesting the need for additional support and resources for this population. The school's location within the Adams County Ohio Valley Local and Southern Hills school districts may also contribute to the school's unique characteristics and challenges.

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.
