Clinton County's Poor Children

Nearly half of Ohio kids get subsidized lunches 

FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 21, 2014 03:41 AM
The percentage of students receiving subsidized school lunches hasn’t budged for four years, indicating that poverty persists for Ohio children and raising doubt about the state’s economic recovery. More than 800,000 kids — 44 percent of students — are enrolled this school year in the federal free and reduced-price lunch program for low-income families, according to data provided by the Ohio Department of Education.
Note: How many families do not apply because of pride or inattention?

In our county:
Blanchester 48%
Clinton-Massie 25%
East Clinton 55%
Wilmington 55%
Border school districts within Clinton County
Lynchburg 43%
Fairfield 36%
Fayettville 43%
Miami Trace 49%

Greenview 31%
Additional aid is available if requested.
