Summary:

Teays Valley Local has two middle schools serving grades 6–8 in Commercial Point and Ashville, Ohio: Teays Valley West Middle School, with 574 students, and Teays Valley East Middle School, with 452 students. Together they enroll 1,026 middle-schoolers. The district ranks 168 of 773 Ohio districts, in the 78th percentile, with 4 stars. Both schools are now rated 4 stars in 2025–26, though West ranks 169 of 1,046 schools (84th percentile) and East ranks 275 of 1,046 (74th percentile). West has been 4 stars across all three reported years, while East improved from 3 stars in 2023–24 and 2024–25 to 4 stars in 2025–26.

West is the current higher performer, especially in 8th grade math and science: 87.8% proficient in 8th Math and 85.9% in 8th Science, both above district and state. East is the faster improver: its rank rose from 395th to 275th and percentile from 62 to 74 from 2023–24 to 2025–26, while West moved from 223rd to 169th. East beat West in 6th Math (66.0% vs 59.9%) and made large gains in 8th ELA (+10.6 points), 7th ELA (+7.0), and 7th Math (+10.8). Both schools reported 100% proficiency in Algebra I in both years, a shared standout, though participation counts are not available. West has lower chronic absenteeism (19.3%) than East (22.8%) and the district (20.5%), despite a higher student-teacher ratio (22.9 vs 17.3).

For parents comparing the two, West offers stronger overall results and lower absenteeism, while East offers smaller classes by ratio and the steepest recent improvement. The biggest contrast is West’s stronger 8th grade math/science performance and East’s higher chronic absenteeism. Data limits matter: free/reduced lunch is unknown for both schools, per-student spending is from 2018–19 ($7,247 at West vs $7,107 at East), and Algebra I participation counts are not provided, so it is hard to judge equity, resources, or how broad the 100% Algebra I result is. Overall, Teays Valley Local’s middle-school picture is strong: both schools are now 4 stars, West is the current higher performer, and East is the fastest improver.
