a 230:1 student-counselor ratio, that meets the ASCA-recommended benchmark, and 45.7% chronic absenteeism from the 2021-22 Civil Rights Data Collection. Demographically, the student body averages 72.6% White, 17.0% Hispanic or Latino, 2.2% African American across the district's schools.

That is an overwhelming concentration, leaving the rest of Findlay Digital Academy a distant remainder — means Findlay Digital Academy-wide averages can mask substantial variation outside the largest entity. Grade band: high. The share measures enrollment concentration only; it does not establish how the district allocates programs, capital, or staff. Because it contains a majority of the affected population, enrollment-weighted aggregates will sit closer to this entity's reported fields than to those of smaller peers; an unweighted entity count answers a different question.
Findlay Digital Academy student-counselor ratio is 230:1 — low (typically associated with meeting or exceeding the American School Counselor Association (ASCA) recommended 250:1 benchmark, which correlates with stronger college and career counseling capacity)
student-counselor ratio is the simplest comparative metric but it does not capture the full picture: the ratio counts FTE counselors against total enrollment, districts that contract intervention or social-emotional staff outside the counselor classification may be under-counted Lower values often correlate with smaller scale and population characteristics rather than higher resource budgets per se.
Findlay Digital Academy chronic absenteeism rate is 45.7% — well above typical (typically associated with unusually large scale or acute resource constraints)
chronic absenteeism rate is the simplest comparative metric but it does not capture the full picture: a student is chronically absent if they miss ≥10% of enrolled days for any reason, illness, family obligations, or disengagement Values this far above typical often signal acute resource constraints or a structurally different scale than most peers — worth reading alongside the underlying counts, not the ratio alone.
Findlay Digital Academy has 1 school, including 1 high. Total enrollment is 153 students.
