Final Grade Distribution
The final grade was calculated as follow:
|
Exclusions |
40% |
|
Subjective Behavior |
25% |
|
Racial Disparity |
35% |
Exclusion is the combined rate of out of school suspensions, expulsions, emergency removal by a hearing officer and removal by District/School personnel. There is also a penalty for any exclusions in pre-kindergarten through 3rd grade and excessive exclusions in the 9th grade. Subjective Behavior Grade Schools received a grade if they had a large portion of exclusions for inappropriate discipline and non-violent behavior that is subject to individual comfort level and biases. The subjective behavior grade was based on the percentage of exclusions that was for disruptive/disobedient behavior, harassment/intimidation, and unwelcome sexual conduct. Racial disparity is the difference in exclusion based on race. In this report, it is measured by dividing the rate of the racial group with the highest exclusions by the rate of the racial group with the lowest exclusions
Final Letter Grade
There were 1173 districts/schools in this analysis. Of 1173, 212 (18.1%) received no grade because they appeared to be districts not required to report or they reported data through another encompassing District/School. A total of 961 districts received a grade.
Three (.3%) received an A+ for scoring a 100 on exclusion, subjective behavior, and racial disparity. Those districts were: Ottoville Local, Pettisville and Russia Local. All three of these districts were public districts, and all were Type 2 Rural districts.
887 (75.6%) received an "F." Of those districts, 83 (7.1%) were schools/districts that were required to report information and did not.

Final Numerical Grade
A total of 878 districts/schools(74.9%) received a numerical grade. Schools did not receive a numerical grade if they did not report either exclusion data or enrollment data. Some schools reported both exclusion data and enrollment data as "<10". For those schools, they were assigned "3" for exclusions and "5" as enrollment.
The average Final numerical grade was 38.3; Half the schools/districts had a grade below 37.3. The lowest Final Grade was -14.4, and the highest was 100.
Public Districts had a higher mean final grade (42.0) than Community (Charter) Schools (30.1). This difference was statistically significant (p=.000). That is, there is zero probability that this difference occurred by chance.
Urban schools had the lowest mean Final Numerical Grade(16.6), and Suburban schools had the highest mean Final Numerical Grade (54.2). This difference was statistically significant (p=.000). That is, there is zero probability that this difference occurred by chance.

Subjective Behavior Grade
Schools received a grade if they had a large portion of exclusions for inappropriate discipline and non-violent behavior that is subject to individual comfort level and biases. The subjective behavior grade was based on the percentage of exclusions that was for disruptive/disobedient behavior, harassment/intimidation, and unwelcome sexual conduct. To see the specifics of how this grade was constructed, click on this link.
Of the 880 districts that reported Initial Subject Behavior Discipline grade, the median grade was 39.8. The average was 41.0; the lowest was 0, and the highest was 100.
The mean for Community (charter) schools (40.0) was lower than the mean for Public Districts (41.0). This difference was not statistically significant (p=.275); That is there is a 27.5% chance that the difference occurred by chance alone.
Type 8 Urban districts had a lower mean grade (28.0) and Type 6 suburban districts (49.1) had the highest mean grade(49.1). This difference was statistically significant (p=.000).

Racial Disparity Grade
Racial disparity is the difference in exclusion based on race. In this report, it is measured by dividing the rate of the racial group with the highest exclusions by the rate of the racial group with the lowest exclusions. To see the specifics of how this grade was constructed, click on this link.
The average Racial Disparity grade was 37.9; Half the schools/districts had a grade below 40. The lowest Racial Disparity Grade was 0, and the highest was 100.
Community (Charter) Schools had a higher mean grade (40.1) than Public District/School (37). That difference was statistically significant (p=.005). That is, there was less than a .5% probability that the difference occurred by chance alone.
Type 3 Small Town districts earned the lowest mean grade (34.6) while Type 6 Suburban districts earned the highest mean grade (41.4). However, the difference in racial disparity grade was not statistically significant. (p=.215).
