Summary:
Middlebury Academy is the only school in this data set, and it also operates as its own district — Middlebury Academy — so there is no peer school to compare it against. It is a K–8 elementary building at 88 Kent St in Akron, Ohio (44305), serving 253 students with a 16.8-to-1 student–teacher ratio, which works out to roughly 15 teachers.
By state rankings, this is a bottom-quartile school: 1,181st of 1,560 Ohio schools in 2025–26 (24th percentile, 1 star), while the district ranks 676th of 773 (13th percentile, 1 star). It has been improving slowly from a low base — its percentile rank rose from 16 to 20 to 24 over three years. The clearest positive is math, where every grade tested in both years improved: 4th grade rose from 33.3% to 53.8%, 6th from 0% to 12.5%, 7th from 0% to 11.8%, and 8th from 10.0% to 27.3%. Even so, math still sits about 30 points behind the state. The strongest single result on record is 3rd grade ELA in 2024–25 at 73.3%, beating the state's 61.3%, and 4th grade ELA in 2025–26 at 61.5% is essentially even with the state's 61.8%.
The middle grades are the biggest concern. Every 6th-, 7th-, and 8th-grade result in both years falls between 0% and 28.6%, against state rates in the 48–63% range — 8th grade ELA is 9.1% versus 58.3% statewide. Chronic absenteeism stands at 70.3%, meaning roughly seven of every ten students miss enough school to be classified chronically absent; this is the most important context in the file and the likely driver of the middle-grade results. Some figures also come from very small groups of tested students, so individual numbers can swing sharply from year to year. Two useful facts are missing entirely: free/reduced-price lunch is not reported, and per-student spending of $7,599 dates to 2018–19.
