Summary:
The city of Butler, Ohio is home to two elementary schools: Butler Elementary School and Clear Fork Valley Preschool. These schools serve students in the Clear Fork Valley Local district.
Butler Elementary School stands out as the top performer, consistently ranking in the top 40% of Ohio elementary schools over the past 3 years, with a high ranking of 436 out of 1,558 schools in 2024-2025. The school's test scores significantly exceed state averages across multiple subjects and grade levels, with 82.4% of 5th graders proficient or better in Science compared to the state average of 63.4%. Despite having a relatively high free/reduced lunch rate of 48.46%, Butler Elementary maintains strong academic achievement, likely due to its smaller class sizes with a student-teacher ratio of 15.7.
In contrast, Clear Fork Valley Preschool is a much smaller school with only 58 students, and the available data is more limited. Without test score or ranking information, it's difficult to assess the preschool's academic performance relative to the elementary school. However, the preschool's higher student-teacher ratio of 29 suggests it may face different challenges compared to the more successful Butler Elementary School.
