Summary:
Montgomery Preparatory Academy is the only school in this Dayton, Ohio data set, serving 237 students in grades K–8 even though it is classified as an elementary school, and its Montgomery Preparatory Academy district ranks 718th out of 773 Ohio districts, placing it in the 7th percentile with 0 stars. The area summary lists 1 elementary, 0 middle, 0 high, and 0 alternative schools, so this single school accounts for all listed enrollment and outcomes.
Academically, the school stands out for concern: in both 2024–2025 and 2025–2026, every listed grade-level test score in Math, ELA, and Science was below the corresponding state average. Unweighted averages across listed tests were 24.6% school vs. 60.1% state in 2025–2026, and 27.3% vs. 59.2% in 2024–2025, so the gap widened slightly. Mathematics is the weakest subject, averaging 11.6% in 2025–2026 and 16.0% in 2024–2025 against state averages near 56.6%–57.6%, with some grades at or near 0%–5%. ELA is comparatively stronger, including Grade 8 ELA at 50% vs. 58.3% and Grade 6 ELA at 46.7% vs. 54.5% in 2024–2025. Science improved from 25.4% to 31.0%, but the state average was around 62%.
Chronic absenteeism is extremely high at 77.5% for 2025–2026, and school rank history sits mostly in the 9th–16th percentile of Ohio schools. Year-to-year swings should be read cautiously, since different grade cohorts are tested and enrollment counts by grade are not provided. Free/reduced lunch is blank and should be treated as unknown rather than zero; per-student spending of $8,711 is from 2018–2019; and the student-teacher ratio of 16.9 has no state or prior-year comparison. Overall, this is a bottom-tier Ohio school academically, with severe Math gaps and very high absenteeism.
