District-Level NCES Analysis

The school portfolio breaks down into 2 other, 1 elementary schools, giving families a clear picture of grade-band coverage before they move, rent, or enrol.

Per-pupil expenditure runs $20,269 according to the NCES F-33 School District Finance Survey, which aggregates every revenue and spending line reported under federal accounting standards. The funding mix is 14.6% local, 65.5% state, and 19.9% federal — a breakdown that matters because districts leaning heavily on local revenue are more exposed to property-tax swings, while higher federal shares typically track Title I concentration. Average teacher compensation clocks in at $103,051 per NCES F-33, a signal of the district's ability to recruit and retain staff against neighbouring districts. The district's equity score — 61/100, ranked #179 of 822 in Ohio against a state average of 46 — measures how evenly funding reaches schools within its boundaries.

a 354.7:1 student-counselor ratio, above the 250:1 ASCA recommendation, and 29.3% chronic absenteeism from the 2021-22 Civil Rights Data Collection. Demographically, the student body averages 79.0% White, 4.3% African American, 1.7% Hispanic or Latino across the district's schools.

Wellsville Jr. Sr. High accounts for 37.6% of all Wellsville Local student enrollment

That concentration — well above the 8.4% national median for largest-entity share — means Wellsville Local-wide averages can mask substantial variation outside the dominant entity. Grade band: other. A single dominant campus often anchors a district's program offerings and staffing patterns; the share helps explain why district-wide averages may not reflect the typical neighbourhood-school experience. When one entity dominates a region's footprint, its programmatic and budget decisions effectively set policy for a majority of the affected population.

Wellsville Local student-counselor ratio is 355:1 — high (typically associated with staffing constraints that limit per-student counselor time; CRDC data shows higher ratios cluster in larger urban systems)

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 Higher values may reflect larger urban scale or recent resource constraints that have widened the gap.

Wellsville Local chronic absenteeism rate is 29.3% — near the typical range (US average ~28) — aligned with the national post-pandemic baseline of roughly 28% chronic absenteeism

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 Variation between sub-units within Wellsville Local is typically wider than the Wellsville Local-aggregate figure suggests.
