Louisville High School

Summary:

Louisville High School is a public high school serving 787 students in grades 9-12 in Louisville, Ohio. The school is part of the Louisville City School District, which is ranked 149 out of 839 districts in Ohio and has a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Louisville High School consistently performs well on state assessments, with higher proficiency rates than the state average across various subjects, including American Government, American History, Biology, English II, Geometry, and Algebra I. The school maintains a high four-year graduation rate, ranging from 96.1% to 97.0% over the past few years, which is above the state average. Louisville High School also ranks highly for its performance with special education students and students from low socioeconomic backgrounds, indicating strong support and resources for these student groups. However, the school's chronic absenteeism rate has been increasing, rising from 5.9% in 2019-2020 to 20.0% in 2023-2024, which is an area the school may need to address.

Compared to nearby schools, Louisville High School stands out as a high-performing institution. For example, McKinley High School in the Canton City School District and Stark High School, a public charter school, have significantly lower academic performance and graduation rates than Louisville High School. However, the school's ranking for gifted and talented students is relatively low, suggesting that it may need to focus more on providing appropriate resources and challenges for this student population.

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.
