Summary:
Lowellville Local is a small Ohio district serving about 454 students across two schools on the same campus at 52 Rocket Place in Lowellville: Lowellville Elementary School (grades K–6, enrollment 247) and Lowellville High School (grades 7–12, enrollment 207). There is no middle school, so the high school's results include 7th- and 8th-grade tests alongside end-of-course exams.
The two schools perform very differently. Lowellville Elementary School has earned 3 stars for three straight years and ranks at the 57th percentile, with test results generally above the state average — including 5th-grade Science at 80% and 5th-grade Math at 85.7%. Its chronic absenteeism is 24.8%, below the district's 30.4%. Lowellville High School is more mixed: its 97.6% graduation rate is a major strength and several scores top the state, such as 8th-grade Science at 80% and Biology at 67.6%. But it ranks at the 31st percentile with 2 stars, and its chronic absenteeism is 36.6% — 11.8 percentage points higher than the elementary school.
The high school's clearest academic concern is Geometry, where proficiency is just 16.7% versus the state's 43.3%, down from 47.8% the prior year. 8th-grade Math (35.7%), American Government (60%), and 7th-grade ELA (54.1%) also trail the state. Its known free/reduced-lunch rate is 98.55%, though the elementary rate is unknown. With small grade cohorts, year-to-year swings can be large, so parents should weigh patterns over single results.
