Best School Districts

The best schools all had racial disparity ratio of less than 1.5. That is the racial group with the highest exclusion rate was less than 1.5 times more likely to be excluded than the average exclusion rate for other students in that school/district. Three schools had no racial disparity because they had no exclusions. Those schools were Ottoville local, Pettisville local and Russia Local. Another 40 schools had racial disparity ratio greater than zero but less than 1.5. Of those 44 schools, 65.9% (29) were public districts, and the other 34.1% were charter schools. Of the 29 Public districts with a racial disparity ration of less than 1.5, none were urban schools. In 44 best schools/districts, Whites were the group with the highest exclusion rate. The number of different racial groups in the best schools/districts ranged from 3 to 7 with the average and the median number is 5. (NOTE: For some school districts this is an approximation of the racial disparity ratio since they report enrollment as "less than10" and exclusions as "less than 10". In those circumstances, we used "5" as the enrollment number and "3" as the exclusion number. Please check with your school district for more accurate information)
