Summary

Mariemont Junior High School is a small 7–8 middle school in Cincinnati, Ohio, serving 239 students in the Mariemont City district, and it is one of the highest-performing middle schools in Ohio. In 2025–2026 it ranked 4th out of 1,046 Ohio middle schools — the 100th percentile, with a 5-star rating — while its district ranked 6th of 773 districts statewide. That excellence is sustained rather than a one-year spike: the school ranked 3rd in 2021–2022, 6th in 2020–2021, and 4th again in 2025–2026, a dramatic rise from 218th in 2015–2016.

Test results are top-tier across subjects. In 2025–2026, 7th-grade math proficiency was 97.3% (state average: 48.6%), well ahead of Nagel Middle School (73.7%), Indian Hill Middle School (72.3%), and Sycamore Junior High School (59.7%). Seventh-grade English language arts reached 99.2%, and 8th-grade science 94.3%, both leading the nearby group. The accelerated math pathway is exceptionally strong: Algebra I and Geometry End-of-Course proficiency has been 100% for several years running. Only Madeira Middle School edged ahead in 8th-grade math (96.1% vs. 93.6%) and 8th-grade ELA (92.9% vs. 88.5%); even there, Mariemont stayed far above state averages.

The school also stands out for how well it serves specific student groups. In 2024–2025, special education students ranked 2nd of 572 schools statewide, and low-income students ranked among the top 10. Chronic absenteeism was 9.7%, slightly above its own district (8.2%) but well below Sycamore (10.9%) and Nagel (12.8%), and far lower than several nearby Cincinnati schools. Its student–teacher ratio of 11.8 is smaller than most peers, and it achieves these results with modest per-student spending of $8,800 — well under Indian Hill's $16,384 and Madeira's $11,498.
