Summary

The school is at its strongest point in a decade. In 2025–2026 it ranked 54th of 1,046 Ohio middle schools — 95th percentile, 5 stars — up from the 77th percentile in 2015–2016, and its district ranks 42nd of 773 statewide. Math is the standout: 86.4% of 7th graders were proficient, 37.8 points above the state and higher than every comparable area middle school, including Mason Middle School, Sycamore Junior High School, Indian Hill Middle School, Madeira Middle School and Kings Junior High School. Algebra I reached 100% proficiency, above the district's 89.9% and the state's 61.6%. Class sizes have also improved, from 20.9 to 19.1 students per teacher.

English language arts is strong overall (7th grade 87.9%, 8th grade 82.4%) but ranks third locally in 7th grade and fourth in 8th. Eighth-grade science, at 86.4% proficient, is 25 points above the state yet 6th of 7 among nearby schools. Chronic absenteeism of 12.7% is the clearest gap versus top peers — roughly 4.5 points above Mason Middle School and 7.5 above Madeira Middle School — and has drifted up from 10.0% in 2022–2023, while the feeder Loveland Intermediate School reports just 8.3%. Subgroup results are broad: male students rank 98th percentile statewide, special education students 91st, and low-income students 87th. Notably, results improved as the share of students from low-income families nearly doubled (11.54% to 22.28%). Bottom line: an improving, 5-star school with an elite math pipeline and some attendance and science work to do.
