Summary:

Mayfield City has six schools—four elementary, one middle, one high—serving about 4,098 students in grades K–12, with no alternative school. Largest: Mayfield High School (1,504), then Mayfield Middle School (896). Elementaries total 1,698: Millridge Elementary School (604), Lander Elementary (506), Mayfield Center Elementary School (468), Gates Mills Elementary School (120). The district ranks 104 of 773 in Ohio, at the 87th percentile with 4 stars.

Gates Mills Elementary School is the top performer: rank 11 of 1,560, 99th percentile, 5 stars, smallest enrollment, lowest student-teacher ratio (12), highest 2018–19 spending ($13,708), and many 2025–26 proficiencies at 95.2 or 100. Millridge Elementary School is also 5 stars, rank 106 (93rd percentile), largest elementary with low absenteeism (7.1). Mayfield Center Elementary School ranks 237 (85th percentile, 4 stars), with the lowest absenteeism (6.2) and lowest FRPL rate (27.99). Lander Elementary is the outlier: rank 639 (59th percentile, 3 stars), dropped from 72nd percentile, highest FRPL rate (49.41), most scores below district, and ELA 5th grade 64.2 below the state’s 70.4. Mayfield Middle School ranks 217 (79th percentile, 4 stars), with 100 in Algebra I and Geometry EOC in 2024–25 and 2025–26, but absenteeism 18.8. Mayfield High School ranks 82 of 795 (90th percentile, 4 stars), graduation 97.0, above-state EOCs, but highest absenteeism (24.3) and student-teacher ratio (19).

Absenteeism rises with grade level: elementary rates range from 6.2 to 15.4, middle is 18.8, and high is 24.3, versus the district’s 16.7. Spending and size are not simple explanations: the top-ranked school has the highest spending and smallest enrollment, while the largest elementary has the second-lowest spending and is still a 5-star, 93rd-percentile school. The lowest-ranked elementary is the clearest target for support. Overall, Mayfield City is a strong district with two standout 5-star elementaries, an improving high school, and main concerns in the elementary performance gap and middle/high absenteeism.
