Summary:
Edgerton Local is a small Ohio district with just two schools serving about 513 students: Edgerton Elementary School for grades K–6 (251 students) and Edgerton High School for grades 7–12 (262 students). There is no separate middle school, so middle-grade students attend the high school. As a district, Edgerton Local ranks 147th out of 773 districts, placing it at the 81st percentile with 4 stars, and both schools also hold 4 stars.
The elementary school is the academic standout. Every tested math grade, 3rd through 6th, is above 89% proficiency, while Ohio's math averages range from 56.2% to 67.3%. Fifth-grade science reaches 94.7% and 6th-grade ELA reaches 89.7%, both more than 30 points above the state. These results are consistent rather than a one-year spike. Elementary chronic absenteeism is low at 7.6%. Its rank has varied but stayed strong, moving from the 78th percentile to 94th to 87th over three years.
The high school is strongest in social studies and English II: American Government is 92.9%, English II 90.4%, American History 88.7%, and Biology 79.6%, all well above state averages. Middle-grade math is also solid, with 7th grade at 67.7% and 8th grade at 64.5% versus state rates of 48.6% and 52.0%. Geometry, Algebra I, and 8th-grade science sit closer to state levels, with 8th-grade science slightly below. Chronic absenteeism is the biggest difference between the schools: 14.5% at the high school, nearly double the elementary school's rate and above the district's 11.0%. The high school's graduation rate is 100.0%, though only one year is reported, and its rank percentile has slipped from 90 to 87 to 80. Free/reduced lunch data is unavailable for both schools, and spending figures only cover 2018–2019, so those comparisons should be made cautiously.
