Summary:
Uniontown, Ohio is served by six schools covering prekindergarten through 12th grade — three elementary schools, three high schools, and no standalone middle schools — split mainly between the Lake Local and Green Local districts, plus the specialized Portage Lakes Career Center. Listed enrollment totals 5,153 students, ranging from Lake Middle / High School with 1,655 students to the career center with just 130.
Academically, this is a strong area. Lake Middle / High School is the standout: ranked #36 of 795 schools (95th percentile, 5 stars), and above the state in every reported test, often by more than 20 points. Green High School ranks #72 of 795 (91st percentile, 5 stars) and posts the highest graduation rate here at 97.8%, just ahead of Lake Middle / High’s 97.2%. Green Elementary School is a 4-star school ranked #287 of 1,560 (82nd percentile), though its percentile has slipped from 88th to 86th to 82nd over three years. Green Primary School and Lake Primary School have no state rank but show strong early-grade results and low absenteeism.
A clear pattern stands out: chronic absenteeism is far higher in high school (about 19–20%) than in the elementaries (about 8.7–9.2%), and both high schools sit above their district rates while all three elementary schools fall below theirs. Poverty and spending don’t follow a simple pattern — Green Primary has the highest reported free/reduced-lunch rate at 29.54% yet still posts strong 3rd-grade results, while Green Elementary spends the least at $7,929 per student and still scores above the state. A few caveats matter: spending figures are from 2018-19, Lake Middle / High serves grades 7–12 so comparisons with Green High’s 9–12 are imperfect, and Portage Lakes’ free/reduced-lunch figure is unknown rather than zero.
