East Clinton Junior High School

Summary:

East Clinton Junior High School is a public middle school located in Sabina, Ohio, serving 276 students in grades 6-8 as part of the East Clinton Local District, which is ranked 403 out of 839 districts in the state.

While the school has a significantly higher percentage of white students (92.03%) compared to the state average, its academic performance, as measured by state test scores, is generally below the state average and the performance of nearby schools like Clinton-Massie Middle School, Greeneview Middle School, and Lynchburg-Clay Middle School. The school also faces challenges with a high chronic absenteeism rate, ranging from 28.4% to 32.7% in recent years, which is significantly higher than the state average and most nearby schools.

Over the past several years, East Clinton Junior High School's statewide ranking has steadily declined, from 476 out of 1038 Ohio middle schools in 2016-2017 to 623 out of 1046 in 2023-2024, with a consistent 2-star rating from SchoolDigger. The school's high percentage of free and reduced-price lunch recipients (44.57%) suggests that socioeconomic factors may be contributing to the school's academic challenges and high chronic absenteeism rates, which will need to be addressed to improve the overall performance and provide a better educational experience for its 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.
