Riverside High School

Summary:

Riverside High School is a public high school serving grades 7-12 in the small town of De Graff, Ohio, with a total enrollment of 320 students. The school is part of the Riverside Local District, which is ranked 354 out of 839 school districts in Ohio and has a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Riverside High School stands out for its consistently high graduation rates, reaching 100% in the 2020-2021 and 2021-2022 school years, significantly higher than the state average. The school's students also generally perform better than the state average on Ohio State Tests across various subjects and grade levels, with 85.1% of 8th-grade students proficient or better in Science, compared to the state average of 62.1%. However, the school faces a concerning increase in chronic absenteeism, reaching 20.2% in the 2023-2024 school year, which is significantly higher than the 4.2% rate in the 2019-2020 school year.

When compared to the nearby Ohio High-Point school, which has a similar racial makeup with a predominantly white student population, Riverside High School has a significantly higher student-teacher ratio of 17.7 to 18.1, compared to Ohio High-Point's 5.2. This suggests a potentially less favorable learning environment at Riverside High School, which may contribute to its underperformance among certain student subgroups, such as special education and disabled 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.
