Summary

Otis Elementary School is a PK–5 school at 718 N Brush St in Fremont, Ohio, serving 394 students in the Fremont City district. For 2025-26, it ranks 543rd of 1,560 Ohio elementaries (65th percentile, 3 stars), well above the district’s 43rd percentile, 2-star profile. Its long-term trend is notable: it rose from the 28th percentile and 1 star in 2015-16 to a stable 61st–67th percentile band over the last four reported years. Among same-district peers, it is the top performer—ahead of Lutz Elementary School, Atkinson Elementary School, and Croghan Elementary School—and compares well with nearby Woodmore Elementary School, Old Fort Elementary School Bettsville Campus, and Lakota Elementary School.

Otis’s strongest results are in fifth grade. In 2025-26, 89.7% of fifth graders were proficient in math, 81.0% in English language arts, and 74.1% in science—above district and state averages, with the math figure the highest in this comparison group. Fifth-grade math has risen for four straight years. The main warning sign is third-grade math: 57.7% proficient, below the state’s 62.1% and down from 68.8% four years ago. Chronic absenteeism fell from 34.8% in 2021-22 to 13.3% in 2025-26, better than the Fremont City district’s 20.9% but still higher than nearby R C Waters Elementary School, James J Hilfiker Elementary School, and Old Fort Elementary School Bettsville Campus.

Otis also stands out for serving students from low-income backgrounds well: that group has ranked in the 82nd–91st percentile over three years, above the school’s overall 65th percentile. Special education results improved from the 38th to 72nd percentile in one year, though one year is a thin trend. The school posts these results with the lowest per-pupil spending in the comparison set ($7,601 in 2018-19) and the highest student-to-teacher ratio (20.5). Keep in mind that free/reduced-lunch rates are not reported, so economic context is inferred from subgroup rankings, and the spending figure is older than the performance data.
