Summary

Wogaman Middle School is a 318-student school serving grades 7 and 8 at 920 McArthur Ave in Dayton, Ohio, one of three 7–8 middle schools in Dayton City Schools. It has sat near the bottom of Ohio's middle school rankings for a decade — between the 2nd and 7th percentile every year on record, currently 1027th of 1046 ranked schools with 0 stars — inside a district that itself ranks in the 6th percentile statewide. In 2025–26, proficiency averaged about 11% across six tested measures, versus roughly 57% statewide and 19% district-wide. Math 8 was 0.9%, meaning essentially no student reached proficiency.

The most acute issue is chronic absenteeism, which has climbed every recent year to 67.5% in 2025–26 — roughly two of every three students missing at least 10% of school days. That is the highest in its comparison group and 23.7 points above the Dayton City rate, which has been improving; the gap has widened from 6.5 points in 2021–22. There are modest relative gains in English language arts and 8th-grade science even as math slides, and the student–teacher ratio of 13.2 is a genuine strength — third-lowest among ten nearby schools, closer to Oakwood Junior High School's than to Wright Brothers Middle School's.

Nearby schools show how widely outcomes vary. Within a few miles, Oakwood Junior High School ranks 12th of 1046 with 4.8% chronic absenteeism and 88–95% proficiency, and Van Buren Middle School sits at the 74th percentile. Wogaman's own district peers are near the floor too: it edges Edwin Joel Brown Middle School on nearly every measure and is roughly even with Wright Brothers Middle School. Algebra I at 20% is its best result, but similarly ranked Trotwood-Madison Middle School (84.6%) and Northridge Middle School (78.6%) post far higher marks on the same exam.
