Summary

Springfield Junior/Senior High School is a public high school located in Akron, Ohio, serving grades 7-12 with a total enrollment of 849 students. The school is part of the Springfield Local school district.

Over the past 10 years, the school's statewide ranking has fluctuated, ranging from 368th out of 836 Ohio high schools in 2021-2022 to 603rd out of 784 in 2015-2016. The school is currently rated 2 out of 5 stars by SchoolDigger. While the school has seen a steady improvement in its four-year graduation rate, increasing from 91.1% in 2023-2024 to 95.0% in 2024-2025, it has struggled with high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 29.7% to 37.6% over the past few years. The school's performance on state assessments is mixed, with strong performance in some subject areas, such as 8th grade science and American Government, but lagging behind in others, particularly in mathematics.

When compared to nearby schools, such as Tallmadge High School, Lake Middle / High School, and Green High School, Springfield Junior/Senior High School generally performs below these higher-ranked schools in areas like graduation rates, chronic absenteeism, and academic performance. The school's relatively high percentage of students from low socioeconomic backgrounds, with 57.48% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch in 2023-2024, may contribute to these challenges.
