Elementary Schools in Buckeye Local

Summary:

The Buckeye Local school district in Ohio is home to three elementary schools: Buckeye South Elementary School, Buckeye North Elementary School, and Buckeye West Elementary School. These schools serve students from prekindergarten through 5th grade in the local community.

Among the three schools, Buckeye North Elementary School stands out as the highest-performing, ranking 601 out of 1,558 Ohio elementary schools for the 2024-2025 school year. Buckeye North has significantly higher proficiency rates on state tests compared to the district and state averages, particularly in 3rd grade math (95.7% proficiency) and 5th grade science (76.3% proficiency). In contrast, Buckeye South Elementary School and Buckeye West Elementary School have lower rankings of 953 and 926, respectively.

Despite Buckeye North's strong performance, all three schools face challenges, including high chronic absenteeism rates (46.0%) and a significant percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch (69.15% to 75.81%). Additionally, while Buckeye North outperforms the district and state on many metrics, there are still performance gaps, particularly in 5th grade math. Addressing these issues and identifying and replicating the successful practices at Buckeye North could help drive better outcomes for all students in the Buckeye Local school district.
