Summary

Ridgeview Elementary School is a public elementary school located in Ashtabula, Ohio, serving grades K-5 with a total enrollment of 407 students. The school is part of the Buckeye Local District, which is ranked 442 out of 828 districts in Ohio and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Ridgeview Elementary faces several key challenges, including consistently high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 29.2% to 34.3% over the past few years, which is significantly higher than the state average and the rates of nearby schools like Kingsville Elementary (33.2%) and Austinburg Elementary (31.7%). Additionally, the school's test scores on the Ohio State Tests are generally below the state and district averages across various grade levels and subjects. For example, in 2024-2025, Ridgeview's 5th-grade science proficiency rate was 57.5%, compared to the Buckeye Local district's 60.6% and the state's 63.4%.

Interestingly, Ridgeview Elementary's performance varies significantly across different student subgroups. The school's Hispanic and special education students consistently rank in the bottom 10-20% of Ohio elementary schools, while its low-socioeconomic status students perform better, ranking in the top 50%. This suggests that the school may need to focus on addressing the unique needs of these underperforming groups. Additionally, Ridgeview Elementary's statewide ranking has declined over the years, from a high of 472 out of 1,684 Ohio elementary schools in 2014-2015 to 858 out of 1,558 in 2024-2025, indicating that the school is struggling to keep pace with other elementary schools in the state.
