Summary:
Clinton-Massie Local, which serves the Clarksville, Ohio area, has just one middle school: Clinton-Massie Middle School, serving grades 6 through 8 with 402 students. Because it is the only middle school in the district, there are no sibling schools to compare it against — the meaningful comparison is how it stacks up against middle schools statewide. It is a consistently above-average school: it earned 4 stars in each of the last three ranked years and placed 290th out of 1,046 ranked middle schools in 2025–26, the 72nd percentile.
Test scores are strong in most subjects. Averaged across the eight tested subjects in 2025–26, proficiency is about 71%, against a state average of roughly 57% — an edge of about 14 points. Algebra I is the standout at 97.9% proficient, 36 points above the state. Sixth- and seventh-grade math posted the biggest improvements, rising 10.0 and 11.5 points year over year to 78.8% and 68.6%, both roughly 20 points above the state. Two results sit lower: eighth-grade math at 46.4%, the only subject below the state (52.0%), and eighth-grade ELA, which fell 10.6 points to 60.7%. The eighth-grade math figure likely reflects the strongest math students taking Algebra I instead, while the ELA decline follows a specific group of students whose scores dropped 22.6 points between seventh and eighth grade.
Context is worth knowing too. Chronic absenteeism is 11.7%, slightly better than the district's 11.9% — roughly one in every eight and a half students is chronically absent. About a third of students (33.08%) qualify for free or reduced lunch, and the student–teacher ratio is 18.2. The per-student spending figure of $8,170 dates to 2018–19 and should not be read as a current number. The trend to watch: average proficiency barely moved (71.26% to 71.24%) while the state gained ground, so the school's percentile slipped from 78 to 74 to 72 — steady performance, narrowing lead.
