Summary

Springdale Elementary School is a PK–5 school in Cincinnati, Ohio, serving 529 students in the Princeton City district, and it stands out as one of the stronger elementary schools in its immediate area.

In 2025–2026, Springdale placed 695th of 1,560 Ohio elementary schools — the 55th percentile, with 3 stars — well above its district's 31st percentile (2 stars). Among nearby same-district schools, Springdale is the top-ranked: Woodlawn Elementary School (42nd percentile), Glendale Elementary School (28th), Heritage Hill Elementary School (30th), and Lincoln Heights Elementary School (26th) all rank lower. Math and science are the clear strengths: Math 5 was 77.6% proficient versus 44.2% in the district and 59.1% statewide, and Science 5 was 69.0% versus 47.5% district and 62.7% state. Third-grade English language arts is the weak spot at 44.6%, below both the district (52.0%) and the state (63.4%), and down from 61.9% the year before. Across seven tests, Springdale's average has slipped from the high 70s in 2022–2024 to 68.6 in 2025–2026, though it still tops district and state averages.

Attendance is a relative strength: chronic absenteeism of 11.5% is less than half the district's 23.5% and lower than most neighbors, including Woodlawn (19.5%) and Lincoln Heights (29.9%). The school serves a higher-poverty population — 60.11% free/reduced lunch — with a 19.4 student/teacher ratio that is higher than other Princeton City elementaries, yet it posts stronger academic results. Effectiveness ratings are strong for several student groups, including African American, Hispanic, English-language-learner, and low-income students. The main gap to watch is gender: female students rank in the 65th percentile while male students rank in the 48th.
