Summary

Jackson Southview Elementary School is a PK–5 public school in Jackson, Ohio, serving 349 students as part of Jackson City Schools. In 2025–26 it ranked 616th of 1,560 Ohio elementary schools (61st percentile, 3 stars), which is above the state midpoint and above Jackson City's 56th percentile, but well below its own 84th-percentile showing in 2022–23. The school has slipped gradually over four years: 84th percentile, then 72nd, 69th, and now 61st. Earlier years were often stronger, including 86th percentile in 2016–17.

Southview's results are sharply uneven by grade. Fifth grade is the clear strength: math proficiency is 80.3% (district 72.2%, state 59.1%) and ELA is 80.3% (district 77.1%, state 70.4%). Third-grade ELA is also strong at 80.4%, and science at 68.2% beats the state's 62.7% but trails the district's 70.3%. The weaker spots are early math and fourth-grade reading. Third-grade math (60%) has been below both district and state for three straight years, fourth-grade math has fallen from 92.6% in 2022–23 to 60%, and fourth-grade ELA dropped from 79.6% to 65%. Among nearby schools, Jackson Westview Elementary School (81st percentile, 4 stars) outperforms Southview in most tested areas, though Southview matches or slightly exceeds it in fifth-grade math and ELA. Jackson Northview Elementary School (58th percentile) is closer overall but stronger in early math and fourth-grade ELA.

Southview stands out for how well it serves certain groups: special education students rank in the 90th percentile with 5 stars, and low-SES students rank in the 82nd percentile with 4 stars, both improved over recent years. Chronic absenteeism fell to 14.3% from 21.3%, better than the district's 17.7%, but higher than Jackson Westview Elementary School (11.3%), Jackson Northview Elementary School (13.5%), and Rio Grande Elementary School (9.3%). Per-student spending was $7,296 in 2018–19, lower than most nearby schools, and the 2024–25 student-teacher ratio of 13.4 is relatively favorable. Overall, this is a solidly above-average school with real upper-grade strengths whose main opportunities are early-grade math, fourth-grade reading, and continued attendance gains.
