Summary:
Edison Local (formerly Berlin-Milan) is a small Ohio district with three schools — one elementary serving PK–3, one middle school serving grades 4–8, and one high school serving grades 9–12 — that together enroll 1,379 students. The district ranks 193rd of 773 in Ohio, placing it in the 75th percentile with 4 stars. Edison Elementary School (formerly Milan Elem) and Edison Middle School (formerly Berlin-Milan Middle School) each enroll 525 students, while Edison High School is smaller at 329.
For parents comparing the three, the middle school has the strongest recent all-around profile: it ranked in the 77th percentile with 4 stars in 2025–2026, and every reported test was above the state average, including Algebra I at 100% versus the state's 61.6% and 8th grade ELA at 81.0% versus 58.3%. The elementary school posts the highest tested proficiency — 3rd grade math at 90.5% against a state average of 62.1% — though it only has 3rd grade state test data because it stops at grade 3. The high school stands out for a 99.0% graduation rate, but its ranking has slipped to the 65th percentile with 3 stars, and its Algebra I improved from 58.5% to 73.5%.
Absenteeism tracks loosely with rankings: the middle school has the lowest chronic absenteeism at 11.5%, while the high school has the highest at 16.3%, above the district's 13.8%. Resource comparisons come with caveats — spending figures are from 2018–2019, and free/reduced lunch percentages are unavailable for all three schools, so they should be treated as missing rather than zero. The elementary school's rank history is also outdated, ending in 2010–2011. Across all three schools, every reported 2025–2026 test score was above its state average.
