Summary:
Rolling Hills Local in Ohio has a single middle school, Meadowbrook Middle School, serving grades 6–8 in Byesville with 357 students, so the area's middle-grade results essentially reflect this one school.
Meadowbrook's brightest spot is math. Every tested middle-school math grade improved: 6th grade rose from 29.5% to 47.9% proficient, 7th grade from 40.5% to 47%, and 8th grade from 46% to 63.7% — about 11.7 percentage points above the state's 52%. Algebra I End of Course stands out with 100% proficient in both 2025–2026 and 2024–2025, well above the state rate of 61.6% and 59.4%; because the district's Algebra I rate is much lower, that result likely reflects a specific cohort. English language arts is mixed: 7th grade climbed from 51.7% to 59.5% (state 62.7%) and 8th grade edged from 54.9% to 56.1% (state 58.3%), but 6th grade ELA is the weakest reported subject at 41.9%, down from 43.8% and 14.1 points below the state's 56%. Science slipped from 62.8% to 54.4%, now 6.8 points below the state's 61.2%.
Chronic absenteeism is 24.7%, above the district rate of 22.5%, meaning nearly one in four students is chronically absent. The student-teacher ratio is 22.3, and per-student spending was $9,234, though that figure is from 2018–2019; free/reduced lunch is not reported and should be treated as unknown. The school has earned 2 stars in each of the last three years, ranking 557 of 1,046 (47th percentile) in 2025–2026, 609 of 1,036 (41st percentile) in 2024–2025, and 571 of 1,046 (45th percentile) in 2023–2024. The district itself is rated 2 stars with a rank of 531 of 773 (31st percentile). No test scores were suppressed in this record, but with only one middle school there are no in-district peers to compare against.
