Worthington real estate

I was looking for current videos in Central Ohio and found this video from Worthington Christian Schools and shared it on my private schools page last week.  

For more information about schools in Central Ohio visit my website MaureenMcCabe.com

Central Ohio Public Schools

I'd love to feature short videos from other Central Ohio schools on my website, either private or public schools.  If your school has done a special event  videos or even videos about the schoool I would love to know about them.  email me links Maureen at MaureenMcCabe.com

I am not affiliated with Worthington Christian Schools but I drive by a lot!  I would feature appropriate videos from any Central Ohio schools, church affiliated or otherwise.

Merry Christmas!

Some Franklin County Ohio schools make the grade... others are still working on it.

Congratulations to Franklin County schools districts who got top grades for the 2008 - 2009 school year as many schools are starting the school year this week.  

The grades were released yesterday.  There is so much information about Franklin County school districts on the Ohio Department of Education site it is mind boggling. 

The easy thing for me is to look at the report cards. 

You can look at report cards by school district or building by building within a school district.

The state does not give A,B,C, D, F and any  + or _  (plus or minus)

• Excellent with Distinction
• Excellent
• Effective
• Continuous Improvement
• Academic Watch
• Academic Emergency

Ohio issues report cards by district:

Ohio School Districts

Ohio issues report cards by each school building:

Ohio schools by individual school building

The Franklin County schools that got top grades....  Congratulations to Franklin County School Districts that got a grade of Excellent with Distinction this year:

• Bexley
  
• Dublin
• Grandview Heights
• Hilliard
• New Albany Plain Local
  
• Worthington

Did I miss any? 

I made an assumption that one school district would have an Excellent with Distinction grade from the state.   The school which  I assumed would have the top grade from the state of Ohio is rated excellent.... grades  change year to year.   You know what they say about assumptions.

I really only work the north part of Franklin County so I do not work with homes in some of these districts below.

All Franklin County School Districts according to the Ohio Department of Education:

• Bexley City 
• Canal Winchester Local
• Columbus City
• Dublin City
• Gahanna
• Grandview Heights City
• Groveport Madison Local
• Hamilton Local
• Hilliard City
• New Albany-Plain Local
• Reynoldsburg City
• South-Western City
• Upper Arlington City
• Westerville City
• Whitehall City
• Worthington City

Ohio Schools report cards come out today.

This morning Channel 10 News says:

"The Ohio Department of Education planned to release its annual school district report cards on Tuesday morning.

The report cards, scheduled to be released at 10 a.m., rank each district based on how they are performing in several areas."

As you send your kids off to school for the 2009 - 2010 school year what grade is the state giving your school district?  A number of schools in northern Franklin County, Southern Delaware County start tomorrow I believe.

Information for some Central Ohio public school districts on my website.  There is also a short list of private and parochial schools in Central Ohio there too.

Ohio Schools report cards

Each local school district will be awarded a grade by the   Ohio Department of Education.

Not A, B,C, D, F...  I did not have a chalboard that says "Continuous Improvement" or "Excellent with Distinction" or the other grades that the state gives each school district.

This is a reblog of content from Diane Lynch a real estate agent in Illinois.  Diane is in the Chicago area but what she is saying about schools and neighborhood safety is true for Central Ohio too.

There's lots of information available about schools and neighborhoods in Central Ohio.

Has the Columbus Dispatch published a back to school list yet?  They're running back to school ads...
