Elementary Schools in Niles City

The Niles City school district in Ohio is home to two elementary schools: Niles Primary School and Niles Intermediate School. Based on the available data, Niles Intermediate School appears to be the standout performer, consistently outpacing the district and state averages in academic achievement across various subjects and grade levels.

Niles Intermediate School holds a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger, compared to Niles Primary School's 2-star rating. In the 2024-2025 school year, Niles Intermediate School had 82% of 5th graders proficient or better in Science, significantly higher than the Niles City district average of 82% and the state of Ohio average of 63.4%. The Intermediate School also demonstrated stronger performance in Mathematics and English Language Arts across 3rd, 4th, and 5th grades.

However, both Niles Primary School and Niles Intermediate School face a concerning issue of high chronic absenteeism, with 40.5% of students chronically absent in the 2024-2025 school year. This high rate of absenteeism may be an area of focus for the district to address, as it can have a significant impact on student learning and achievement. Additionally, the lack of data on free/reduced lunch rates makes it difficult to assess the socioeconomic status of the student populations and how that may be influencing the schools' performance.
