SchoolDigger Rank ?

of 1,560 Ohio Elementary Schools

Better than 20% of Ohio elementary schools

Summary

Midway School is a PK–6 elementary school serving 542 students at 3156 Glenmore Ave in Cincinnati, Ohio, as part of Cincinnati Public Schools. The district ranks 609th of 773 Ohio districts (21st percentile, 1 star), and Midway's own 2025–26 statewide rank is 1241st of 1,560 elementary schools — the 20th percentile, 1 star.

That low ranking is a long-standing pattern rather than a recent slide. Over the past decade Midway has ranked between the 14th and 23rd percentile statewide and has always earned 1 star, and recent years are essentially flat (23rd percentile in 2023–24, 21st in 2024–25, 20th in 2025–26). Test scores show one clear bright spot: grade 3 math, at 61.5% proficiency, is above the district's 52.0% and close to the state's 62.1%, and it has improved steadily over four years. Grade 5 is the sharpest weakness — 10.0% proficiency in math, the lowest among nearby schools, and 21.4% in science, both far below district and state. Chronic absenteeism is 39.8%, better than the district's 44.6% but well above nearby Dater Montessori School (22.9%) and Oakdale Elementary School (20.1%).

Results also vary widely across student groups: special education students rank at the 10th percentile with 0 stars and low-income students at the 21st percentile with 1 star, while English language learners sit near the middle of the state distribution. Class size and spending don't explain the gaps — Midway's 17.1 student-teacher ratio is mid-range among nearby schools, and some higher-performing neighbors have larger classes. Nearby same-district schools show better outcomes are possible: Cheviot School, Covedale School, Dater Montessori School, and James N. Gamble Montessori Elementary School all rank above Midway. Midway does outrank Roll Hill School, Leap Academy, and Cincinnati Technology Academy, but it sits near the bottom of the broader nearby set.
