Edgewood Middle School

Summary:

Edgewood Middle School is a public middle school in Trenton, Ohio, serving 832 students in grades 6-8. The school is part of the Edgewood City School District, which is ranked 495 out of 839 districts in the state and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Academically, Edgewood Middle School's performance on state tests is generally below the state average and the performance of nearby schools like Crossroads Middle School and Garfield Middle School. The school's proficiency rates in Math and English Language Arts were lower than the state averages across all grade levels in the 2023-2024 school year. Additionally, Edgewood Middle School has experienced a significant increase in chronic absenteeism, rising from 10.1% in 2019-2020 to 28.9% in 2023-2024, which is notably higher than the state average and the rates of nearby schools.

Edgewood Middle School's statewide ranking has steadily declined over the past decade, from a high of 444 out of 1,010 Ohio middle schools in 2017-2018 to 598 out of 1,046 in 2023-2024. This suggests a concerning trend of declining academic performance relative to other middle schools in the state. The school's rankings for specific student subgroups, such as White students, Special Education students, and Disabled students, are in the bottom quartile of Ohio middle schools, indicating significant performance gaps for these groups. Addressing these issues should be a priority for the school and the Edgewood City School District to improve educational outcomes for all students.

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.
