Summary:
The 42256 school list contains one school, Lewisburg Elementary School, serving prekindergarten through grade 8 with 500 students in the Logan County area. Its 2025–2026 results show a clear strength in eighth-grade writing, but performance varies sharply by grade and subject. The most important concern is fifth grade: Lewisburg was below state proficiency in all five subjects reported for that grade.
Because it is the only school listed, there is no local school-to-school top or bottom; the clearest standouts are within Lewisburg’s grade-level results. Eighth-grade writing was a relative high point, with 60% proficient compared with 48% statewide, a 12-point advantage. Eighth-grade editing and mechanics was also above the state, 46% versus 42%. Fifth grade was the weakest point: results were 16% in mathematics versus 43% statewide, 30% versus 51% in reading, 12% versus 35% in writing, 16% versus 38% in social studies, and 28% versus 48% in editing and mechanics. Across those subjects, the average was 20% at Lewisburg versus 43% statewide, a 23-point gap. Science was closest to the state overall, averaging 31% versus 34%, though fourth grade was 7 points below and seventh grade 1 point above.
Recent results moved farther below the state overall: across comparable results, Lewisburg’s average fell from 42% to 38% between 2024–2025 and 2025–2026, while the state average changed from 44% to 44%; the gap widened by 4 points. Mathematics fell 11 points, while science improved 8 points, and eighth-grade social studies fell 12 points. SchoolDigger’s statewide percentile ranking declined from 37 to 20 over three years, and its star rating went from 2 to 1. Context figures include a 17.2:1 student-teacher ratio in 2024–2025 and 61% free/reduced lunch eligible that school year. Chronic absenteeism was 10% at Lewisburg, compared with 13% in the district and 24% statewide in 2025–2026.
