The school has consistently ranked in the bottom 10-15% of Ohio elementary schools over the past 10 years, with low academic performance on state tests that is significantly below the state average.

In the 2024-2025 school year, only 22.4% of 3rd graders and 35.2% of 4th graders at North College Hill Elementary were proficient or better in math, compared to state averages of 64.4% and 69.1%.

Compared to nearby schools like Struble Elementary in the Northwest Local district, North College Hill Elementary performs significantly worse.

Addressing the root causes of the school's low performance and high chronic absenteeism will likely require targeted interventions and additional resources to support the needs of its student population.
