I am a Fremont Ross Graduate. I feel if students get involved in school activities it enhances their highschool experience. Also, parents should be involved and supportive of the student and the school. Fremont Ross has a variety of activities to be involved in that add to the educational experience.

i am a current student at ross, and im only there for about an hour and a half a day, then i go home to do novanet. while im at ross for the time being, i get nothing but problems and teachers look at me like im dumb or something. parents dont know exactly how us kids get treated, someone should watch. ross high school, and all schools together, are pointless, and should in fact be optional.

Little Giants are the Best. I received a good education there.

I found this school to be a total mess. I know several teachers and they could care less about the average kids in school. They do profess caring about the real good students but who wouldn't. Any type of school rules violation merits in-school or out of school suspension. What ever happened to detention? The kid just gets farther behind and cares alot less about school.

This is a good High school with lots of things to offer: diverse student population, big selection to choose from when it comes to course listings, Great School Spirit 'Go Little Giants!', and a great opportunity for your child to succeed. It isn't hard finding friends when there are so many students, and the teachers are excellent, some of the best. This town has the comfort of great neighborhoods and good schools.

About the tests


In 2010-2011 Ohio used the Ohio Graduation Test (OGT) to test students in grade 10 in reading, writing, math, science and social studies. State averages displayed on public school profiles include public schools only. State averages displayed on private school profiles include private schools only. The OGT is a high school graduation requirement for public schools and chartered private schools. The OGT is a standards-based test, which means it measures how well students are mastering specific skills defined by the state of Ohio. The goal is for all students to score at or above proficient on the test.

About the tests


Ohio uses the Performance Index to provide an overall indication of how well students perform on its standardized tests each year. The Performance Index scores are based upon how well each student does on all tested subjects in grades 3 through 8 and 10. Schools and districts earn anywhere from 1.2 points for each student scoring at the advanced level to zero points for each untested student. The Performance Index ranges between 0 and 120, with 100 as the statewide goal for all students.

No Value-Added data was reported for this school.

About the tests


In 2010-2011, the Ohio Department of Education used the Value-Added Measure to show how much growth students made on the Ohio Achievement Test since the last school year. The state expects that student test scores will show an average year's worth of growth compared to test scores from the previous year. Ohio's Value-Added Measure is not the same as Adequate Yearly Progress (AYP), a federal measure which uses different criteria.
