Summary:

Lowellville High School is a public high school serving grades 7-12 in Lowellville, Ohio, with a total enrollment of 217 students. The school is part of the Lowellville Local School District, which is ranked 494 out of 839 districts in Ohio and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Lowellville High School has a predominantly white student population, with 82.03% of students identifying as white, significantly higher than the nearby Choffin Career Center, where only 33.33% of students are white. The school has maintained a high four-year graduation rate of 100% in recent years, an impressive achievement compared to the state average. However, the school has experienced a concerning increase in chronic absenteeism, rising from 10.4% in 2019-2020 to 47.4% in 2022-2023.

Academically, Lowellville High School's performance is mixed, with strong results in English Language Arts but struggles in Mathematics, where only 31% of 7th-grade students and 26.7% of 8th-grade students were proficient or better in 2023-2024, significantly lower than the state average. The school's statewide ranking has also steadily declined over the years, from a high of 36th out of 778 Ohio high schools in 2014-2015 to 568th out of 864 in 2023-2024. This downward trend, coupled with the school's high percentage of students from low socioeconomic backgrounds (82.95%), highlights the need for targeted interventions and support to address the unique challenges facing the Lowellville High School community.

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.
