How Do Strongsville Schools Rate? Use Our Search Form to Find Out

You can learn how any Ohio school district performs by using this easy online search form

 

Every year, Ohio rates its 600-plus school districts on more than two dozen criteria, from graduation rates to how students perform on standardized tests in reading, math and other subject areas.

Ratings for the school year that just ended won't be out until August, but you can get a good idea how things stand for Strongsville schools by looking at data for 2010-2011.

The ratings are not without controversy, of course. Some argue that they force a "teaching-to-the-test" approach that undermines real learning. And districts with already high-achieving students say it's tough for them to meet requirements that they demonstrate year-over-year improvements.

But faulty or not, the annual report card remains one of the few ways to make meaningful comparisons between districts. So when the 2011-12 report cards are issued in August, we'll offer the latest data in a similar format.

these results are always going to be off until they remove the families of "locusts" (students who move from city to city every year while never making any attempt to participate in school) transient students test scores should not count until after they are in the same school system for over a year

The school won't even help the struggling student that has a stable home here.
