Southington Elementary School generally performs above the state average on Ohio State Tests, with 77.3% of 3rd-grade students proficient or better in Mathematics, compared to the state average of 62.1%. The school also excels in 5th-grade Science, with 70% of students proficient or better, compared to the state average of 64%. However, the school's performance in Science lags behind some of the higher-performing nearby schools, such as STEAM Academy of Warren and James A. Garfield Elementary School. Additionally, the school's chronic absenteeism rate of 11.9% in 2023-2024 is higher than the state average, indicating room for improvement in student attendance.

Compared to nearby schools, Southington Elementary School generally outperforms its counterparts on state tests, particularly in Mathematics and English Language Arts. The school's relatively low student-teacher ratio, ranging from 14.8 to 21.3 over the past few years, may contribute to its success. However, the school's performance for certain student subgroups, such as white students and gifted and talented students, has been more mixed, with rankings in the bottom half of the state. Despite this, Southington Elementary School's spending per student of $8,017 in 2018-2019 is lower than the state average and some of the nearby schools, suggesting the school is able to achieve strong academic results with limited resources.

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.
