Paint Valley Elementary

Summary:

Paint Valley Elementary is a public elementary school in Bainbridge, Ohio, serving 392 students in grades PK-5. The school is part of the Paint Valley Local District, which is ranked 540 out of 839 districts in the state and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

While Paint Valley Elementary has a significantly higher percentage of white students (95.41%) compared to nearby schools, it faces several challenges. The school has seen a steady increase in chronic absenteeism, rising from 5.4% in 2019-2020 to 21.2% in 2023-2024, which is higher than the state average and most surrounding schools. Additionally, Paint Valley Elementary's test scores are generally lower than the state and local district averages, particularly in English Language Arts and Mathematics. For example, in 2023-2024, only 37.9% of 3rd-grade students were proficient or better in ELA, compared to the state average of 64.5%. The school also has a high percentage of students from low socioeconomic backgrounds, with 76.53% of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch in 2022-2023, significantly higher than the surrounding schools.

Compared to nearby schools like Unioto Elementary and Greenfield Elementary, which have higher test scores and better school rankings, Paint Valley Elementary has consistently ranked in the bottom half of Ohio elementary schools, with a ranking of 987 out of 1,577 in 2023-2024 and a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger. These challenges suggest a need for targeted interventions and support to address the unique needs of the school's student population and improve academic performance.

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.
