Summary

Woodlawn Elementary School is a small PK–5 school at 31 Riddle Rd in Cincinnati, OH 45215, serving 178 students as part of the Princeton City School District in the city's northern suburbs. In 2025–26 it ranked 899th out of 1,560 Ohio elementary schools — 42nd percentile, 2 stars — while its district ranked 532nd of 773 Ohio districts (31st percentile, 2 stars). Woodlawn's best recent showing was 455th of 1,636 (72nd percentile, 4 stars) in 2017–18, and the 2025–26 result is the lowest percentile in its recent record.

In 2025–26, Woodlawn scored above its district average in 5 of 7 tested subject and grade areas but at or below the state average in all 7, with 5th grade English/language arts exactly matching the state. That marks a turnaround from prior years: averaged across those areas, Woodlawn's gap to the state moved from about +9.3 points in 2022–23 to +5.6, then +2.6, then −3.8 in 2025–26. Within Princeton City, Woodlawn trails Springdale Elementary School (695th, 55th percentile) but outperforms Glendale Elementary School (1,125th) and Lincoln Heights Elementary School (1,161st). Nearby Wyoming City schools are far ahead — Hilltop Elementary School ranks 9th of 1,560, Elm Avenue Elementary School 55th and Vermont Avenue Elementary School 119th — while Lockland Elementary School (1,384th) and Winton Woods Elementary School (1,244th) trail Woodlawn.

Chronic absenteeism was 19.5% in 2025–26, below the district's 23.5% and below Lincoln Heights (29.9%), Lockland (40.6%) and the Winton Woods City schools, but well above the Wyoming City schools (3.9%–6.8%) and higher than Springdale (11.5%) and Glendale (10.9%). Woodlawn's student-teacher ratio was 14.2 in 2024–25, lower than Springdale's 19.4 and Winton Woods Elementary's 27.4, and per-student spending was $11,167 in 2018–19. Its effectiveness ranking for low-income students was 60th percentile in 2025–26, above average but down from 86th in 2023–24. With only about 178 students, year-to-year results can swing widely.
