Summary

Cuyahoga Falls Middle School, located at 2630 13th St in Cuyahoga Falls, Ohio, is the 6th–8th grade school of the Cuyahoga Falls City School District, serving 508 students in a suburban community just north of Akron.

The 2025-2026 year is the school's strongest in the decade of data available: it ranks 516th of 1,046 Ohio schools (51st percentile) with 3 stars — its first 3-star rating — recovering from a 37th-percentile low in 2021-2022. Chronic absenteeism has fallen to 24.4% from 36.8%, though it remains slightly above the district's 23.1% and well above Lakeview Elementary School (11.3%) in neighboring Stow-Munroe Falls. Eighth-grade English language arts climbed 25 points over three years to 63.1% (4.8 points above the state), and science rebounded to 64.7% after a sharp dip. Algebra I proficiency is 84.6%, 23 points above the state. Notably, the school posts these results while spending $7,652 per student — far less than Tallmadge Middle School and Woodridge Middle School.

The clearest weakness is general 8th-grade math: 38.8%, which is 13.2 points below the state and has trailed persistently for four years. The gap between that figure and the 84.6% Algebra I pass rate suggests the school serves its accelerated math students very well but struggles with on-grade-level students. The most telling comparison is Woodridge Middle School, which has nearly identical poverty (61.45% free/reduced lunch vs. 63.78%) and absenteeism (24.0% vs. 24.4%) yet posts 70.1% in 8th-grade math — pointing to instructional differences rather than student population. Meanwhile, low-income students, about two-thirds of enrollment, slipped from the 56th to the 43rd percentile even as the school's overall rank rose, so the improvement is not reaching every group evenly.
