Message from Dr. Lynn Campbell

Dear Orange Schools Families,

Earlier this month, the Ohio Department of Education (ODE) released its 2022-2023 Ohio State Report Cards. The state report card includes a 5-Star Rating in five component areas as well as an overall rating. I am excited to share that we achieved an overall 5-Star Rating, significantly exceeding state standards! Likewise, Moreland Hills Elementary School, Ballard Brady Middle School and Orange High School each received overall 5-Star Ratings as well. This is yet another notable achievement for our District as we celebrate our centennial, marking 100 years of excellence!

Our overall 5-Star Rating is thanks to the incredible hard work of our fine teachers as well as the dedication of our wonderful students and the support of their families. I also commend our administrators and all non-teaching staff for the key roles they play in this achievement. As we celebrate these results, we will continue to build on our strengths while addressing opportunities for continuous improvement. 

The five components of the report card include Achievement (how well students performed on state tests), Progress (the growth all students make based on their past performance), Gap Closing (how well schools are doing in closing the achievement gap between students based on income, race, ethnicity or disability), Graduation Rate, and K-3 Literacy. An overview of our state report card is available on the ODE website. Our District team is continuing to study the data and will be making a more detailed presentation to the Board of Education at an upcoming meeting.

While this report card is one measure largely based on the state-wide testing, I am also excited to announce the release of our 2023 Quality Profile. It is available in digital format on the District website, and all residents can expect to receive a hard copy in their mailbox by early October. 

Thank you for your continued support and commitment to the Orange Schools.

Sincerely,

Lynn Campbell

Superintendent
