Per-pupil expenditure runs $22,621 according to the NCES F-33 School District Finance Survey, among the top 99 of 981 Ohio districts by per-pupil spending. See how Ohio compares in our national per-pupil spending analysis. The funding mix is 0.1% local, 63.0% state, and 36.9% federal, a state-revenue-heavy mix that insulates the district somewhat from local property-tax volatility, though it ties funding to state budget cycles.
a 99:1 student-counselor ratio, that meets the ASCA-recommended benchmark, and 86.9% chronic absenteeism from the 2021-22 Civil Rights Data Collection. Demographically, the student body averages 93.9% African American, 4.0% Hispanic or Latino, 2.0% White across the district's schools.
Its largest campus is Wings Academy 1, enrolling 99 students (100% of the district's total enrollment).

That is an overwhelming concentration, leaving the rest of Wings Academy 1 a distant remainder — means Wings Academy 1-wide averages can mask substantial variation outside the largest entity. Grade band: elementary. 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.
Wings Academy 1 student-counselor ratio is 99:1 — well below typical (typically associated with unusually small scale or exceptionally high per-unit investment)
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 Values this far below typical often correlate with unusually small scale or population characteristics rather than higher resource budgets per se — worth checking whether the underlying denominator is itself an outlier.
Wings Academy 1 chronic absenteeism rate is 86.9% — 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.
Wings Academy 1 has 1 school, including 1 elementary. Total enrollment is 153 students.
