Girard Intermediate Middle School

Public Grades 4-6
Summary

Girard Intermediate Middle School is a grades 4–6 school in Girard, Ohio, serving 349 students on East Prospect Street as part of the Girard City School District, which ranks 403 of 773 Ohio districts (48th percentile, 2 stars). Its closest same-district neighbor is Girard Junior High School, a grades 7–8 campus about a mile away, and among nearby schools only William S Guy Middle School also serves grades 4–6.

Academics are mixed and mostly below state averages for 2025–26. Science 5 (63.3 vs. 62.7 statewide) and Math 4 (66.4 vs. 67.3) are the relative strengths. Fifth-grade math is the clearest weakness at 43.1 compared with 59.1 statewide, a gap of about 16 points, and sixth-grade ELA sits at 48.4 versus the state's 56.0. Fifth-grade ELA (65.5 vs. 70.4) and sixth-grade math (52.2 vs. 56.2) are also behind. In these grades the school's scores match the district's exactly, so it essentially represents the district's 4–6 results.

Attendance is the standout success: chronic absenteeism fell from 34.1% in 2021–22 to 19.4% in 2025–26, the lowest rate among the nearby comparison schools, just ahead of Howland Middle School's 20.6% and far below Chaney Middle (72.6%) and East Middle at PRBerry (73.6%). The student-teacher ratio of 12.6 in 2024–25 is more favorable than Hubbard Middle School (13.8), Niles Middle School (13.2), Howland Middle School (15.2) and Austintown Middle School (19.3). Reported per-student spending of $8,244 dates from 2018–19 and is lower than several neighbors, so it should not be read as current. Notably, Girard Junior High posts stronger 2025–26 proficiency, while Girard Intermediate has better attendance.
