Summary:
Mayfield, Ohio is served by one listed school — Mayfield Center Elementary School, a K–5 building with 468 students (roughly 78 per grade) on Wilson Mills Road in the Mayfield City district. Because it is the only school in this area, there are no peer schools to compare it against; the meaningful comparisons are against its own district, the state of Ohio, and its prior year.
Academically, the school is a consistent top-tier performer statewide, ranking between the 85th and 90th percentile of Ohio elementary schools for three straight years (187th, then 162nd, then 237th out of roughly 1,560) with a 4-star rating each year. Math is its defining strength: an 87.5% average across grades 3–5, ahead of the district's 82.8% and far ahead of the state's 62.8%, with 4th-grade math at 93.3% as the single best result. Every one of its seven tested areas beats the state, by margins ranging from +10.9 to +29.4 points. Attendance is another standout: chronic absenteeism is 6.2%, less than half the district's 16.7%.
Two things are worth watching. First, English Language Arts averages 79.8%, below the district's 82.3% ELA average, and the school beats the district in only 4 of 7 tested areas (math 4 and 5, ELA 5, science 5). Second, the overall average slipped from 85.4% to 82.6% year over year, but the drop is concentrated entirely in 5th-grade ELA (−11.1 points) and 5th-grade science (−11.0) — likely an exceptionally strong prior 5th-grade class moving on rather than a school-wide decline. Data is also thin in places: free/reduced lunch (27.99%), the 17.3 student-teacher ratio, and absenteeism each cover only one year, and per-student spending ($13,241) dates to 2018-19. No suppressed, bounded, or ranged values appear in this record.
