Summary:
Canfield Local is a high-performing, low-poverty Ohio district serving 2,453 students across four schools — two K–4 elementaries, one grades 5–8 middle school, and one grades 9–12 high school — and it ranks 52nd of 773 districts statewide, in the 93rd percentile with 5 stars.
All four schools beat the Ohio average in every measured subject across two years. Canfield High School is the district's elite performer, ranking in the top ~4% of Ohio high schools for three straight years (32nd of 795 in 2025–26), with a 95.9% graduation rate and the highest single score in the data (Biology 96.1%). Canfield Village Middle School ranks 56th of 1,046 (95th percentile) and posts a perfect two-year Algebra I record — 100% proficient in both years. C H Campbell Elementary School is the stronger elementary: it beat Hilltop Elementary School in all eight head-to-head grade and subject comparisons over two years, even with a slightly higher free/reduced-lunch rate (23.62% vs. 22.9%) and a larger student–teacher ratio (20.4 vs. 17.6).
Hilltop remains strong in absolute terms — 4 stars, 84th percentile, and +15 to +22 points above state in every subject — but it is the lowest-ranked of the four. Watch items: 8th-grade math fell 9.0 points to 75.7%, 4th-grade ELA slipped at both elementaries (Hilltop −8.0, Campbell −4.4), and high-school chronic absenteeism is 19.2%, well above the elementaries' 7.6% and 8.7% and the district's 13.2%. Elementary rank percentiles have drifted slightly (Campbell 97 → 94 → 92; Hilltop 86 → 83 → 84), while the middle and high schools hold steady near the top.
