Summary

Midnimo Cross Cultural Middle School is a grades 6–8 school with 165 students at 2092 Century Blvd on Columbus's east side, and in 2025–26 it ranked 375th of 1,046 Ohio middle schools — the 64th percentile with 3 stars.

That is a big jump from recent years. In 2024–25 the school was 561st of 1,036 (46th percentile, 2 stars), and back in 2018–19 it was 738th of 1,050 (30th percentile, 1 star). Among the 10 nearby middle schools, none comes close: Dominion Middle School is next at the 44th percentile, while Champion Middle School and Mifflin Alternative Middle School sit at 6th and 7th percentile. Test scores follow the same pattern. In 2025–26 Midnimo was above the Ohio average in 8th-grade science (71.1% vs. 61.2%), 7th- and 8th-grade math, all three ELA grades, and Algebra I, where 100% of students were proficient versus 61.6% statewide. The one exception is 6th-grade math, at 50.9% against a 56.2% state average. Attendance is another standout: chronic absenteeism was 11.9%, far below every nearby school (all above 30%) and the Columbus City Schools District average of 53.8%.

Statewide subgroup rankings show the school is especially effective for its African American students (96th percentile, 5 stars) and students from low-income families (84th percentile, 4 stars). It achieves this with the smallest enrollment among nearby schools, the second-highest student-teacher ratio (23.5 in 2024–25), and the lowest reported per-student spending ($7,214 in 2018–19). Two things to watch: 8th-grade math and ELA results have swung widely from year to year, and the rising student-teacher ratio could become a pressure point.
