Summary:
Felicity, Ohio has three public schools — Felicity-Franklin Local Elementary School (PK–6, 346 students), Felicity-Franklin Local Junior High School (7–8, 106 students) and Felicity-Franklin Local High School (9–12, 184 students) — all part of the Felicity-Franklin Local district. Together they serve 636 students and share the same address, suggesting one campus. The district rates 2 stars and ranks 518th of 773 Ohio districts (33rd percentile), but the three schools' results look very different from one another.
The elementary is the academic bright spot, especially in early grades: 3rd-grade math is 90.9% proficient (28.8 points above the state), 4th-grade math 92.5% (25.2 points above) and 4th-grade ELA 77.4% (15.6 points above). But there is a grade-level cliff — 6th-grade math is 38.3% (17.9 points below state), with 5th-grade science and ELA also below state. The junior high is the most challenged: 8th-grade math is 19.2% (32.8 points below state) and 7th-grade ELA 41.2% (21.5 points below), though Algebra I at 60.4% is close to state. The high school graduates 96.3% of students and its English II score of 68.8% is above state and up from 54.4%, but Geometry sits at 28.0% (15.3 points below state) and American History fell to 65.5%.
All three schools lost ground in 2025–2026 rankings: the elementary fell from the 73rd to the 59th percentile, the junior high from the 51st to the 31st (dropping from 3 stars to 2), and the high school from the 42nd to the 30th. Chronic absenteeism is highest at the high school (29.8%) and junior high (25.8%), both above the district's 21.0%, while the elementary is lower at 15.4%. Per-student spending is nearly identical across the three schools, and the junior high even has the smallest classes (9.6:1), so resources do not explain the gaps. With only 106 and 184 students at the secondary schools, year-to-year swings can be volatile.
