Summary

Madison Middle School is a public middle school located in Mansfield, Ohio, serving grades 5-8 with a total enrollment of 758 students. The school is part of the Madison Local School District, which is ranked 345 out of 828 districts in Ohio and has a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Madison Middle School consistently performs above the state average in Ohio State Tests across various subjects and grade levels, particularly in Science and Algebra I. For example, in the 2024-2025 school year, 73.2% of 5th-grade students and 62.4% of 8th-grade students were proficient or better in Science, compared to the state average of 63.4% and 63%, respectively. In Algebra I, an impressive 97.8% of students were proficient or better, significantly higher than the state average of 59.4%. However, the school's performance for other student subgroups, such as female, male, white, multi-racial, special education, and low socioeconomic status students, has been more mixed, with rankings ranging from the top 20% to the bottom 50% of Ohio middle schools.

While Madison Middle School's academic performance is generally stronger than the nearby Mansfield Middle School, which has struggled with low proficiency rates and is ranked in the bottom 15% of Ohio middle schools, some nearby schools, such as Shelby Middle School, Ashland Middle School, and Lexington Junior High School, have outperformed Madison Middle School in certain subject areas and student subgroups. Additionally, the school's high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 21.4% to 25.2% in recent years, which are significantly higher than the state average, may be a contributing factor to its mixed performance across different subject areas and student subgroups.
