Counselor coverage works out to roughly 256 students per counselor, above the ASCA-recommended ceiling of 250:1. Chronic absenteeism — missing 10% or more of school days — stands at 99.6% according to the 2021-22 Civil Rights Data Collection.
On the finance side, the surrounding Cincinnati Public Schools spends $20,319 per pupil district-wide, above the Ohio average of $16,867 and above the national average of $19,490. Revenue comes 53.6% from local sources (property taxes), 24.6% from the state, and 21.8% from federal programs per the NCES F-33 finance survey. Taken together, these measurements produce a Resource Investment Index of 30/100 (F), calculated from 4 distinct NCES and CRDC indicators measuring resource allocation rather than academic outcomes.
