What stands out at Millennium Community School

Millennium Community School is a mid-sized charter elementary school in Columbus, Ohio, enrolling 489 students.

Class loads run heavy: 37.6:1 is larger than about 98% of Ohio schools and 107% above the 18.2:1 state mean, so each teacher carries more students than is typical.

Enrollment of 489 puts it in the larger third of Ohio schools by headcount.

Its Resource Investment Index trails 99% of the 3,574 Ohio schools with a score on record, one of the lower results on this measure.

Its student body is predominantly African American (97% of enrollment), among the less diverse in the state (diversity index 7/100).

Chronic absenteeism is elevated: 55.2% of students missed 10% or more of school days (2021-22 Civil Rights Data Collection).

The surrounding Millennium Community School spends $10,219 per pupil, 30% below the Ohio average, a leaner-resourced district than most.

Its district draws 24.3% of revenue from federal sources, an above-typical federal share that tends to track a higher-need student population.

Among Columbus's elementary schools, it stands alongside Hamilton Elementary School (1,028 students): Millennium Community School is smaller than that campus by headcount and runs heavier classes (37.6:1 vs 21.9:1).

Millennium Community School is a single-school charter district, so Millennium Community School operates independently rather than alongside district-mates.
