Madison High School has maintained a relatively high four-year graduation rate, ranging from 86.4% in 2021-2022 to 94.6% in 2020-2021, which is higher than the state average and compares favorably to nearby schools like Lakeside High School (86.6%) and Fairport Harding High School (91.2%). However, the school has seen a significant increase in chronic absenteeism, rising from 11.4% in 2019-2020 to 34.4% in 2022-2023, which is notably higher than the state average and many of the surrounding schools, such as Perry High School (14.7%) and Riverside Junior/Senior High School (29.8%).

Madison High School generally performs above the state average in end-of-course assessments, particularly in subjects like American History, Biology, and English II. However, the school struggles in mathematics, with lower proficiency rates in Geometry and Algebra I compared to the state and local district averages. Additionally, the school's statewide ranking has declined from a high of 234 out of 836 Ohio high schools in 2018-2019 to 423 out of 864 in the 2023-2024 school year, suggesting the school may be facing challenges in maintaining its academic performance compared to other schools in the state.

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.
