Summary

Buckeye Woods Elementary School is a K–4 school at 2525 Holton Rd in Grove City, Ohio, serving 742 students — the largest enrollment among the eight South-Western City district elementaries in this comparison — and it posts results far above its district, which is rated 2 stars and ranked 508th of 773 Ohio districts.

Academically, the school ranked 234th of 1,560 Ohio elementary schools in 2025–26 (85th percentile, 4 stars) and it leads every tested subject: 80.8% proficient in 3rd grade math, 81.1% in 4th grade math, 86.2% in 3rd grade ELA and 80.6% in 4th grade ELA — about 21 points above the average of seven same-district peers and roughly 18.5 points above the state. That places it about 258 ranking spots ahead of the next-best school in its district group, JC Sommer Elementary School (492nd). By contrast, Bolton Crossing Elementary and James A Harmon Elementary School sit at the 21st and 41st percentiles despite sharing the same district and grade band. Outside the district, Hamilton Elementary School tracks close to state averages, while Parsons Elementary School reports 62.4% chronic absenteeism and A+ Children's Academy 82.5%.

Two contextual facts shape how to read those numbers. First, 20.6% of Buckeye Woods students qualify for free or reduced lunch, versus a peer average of about 64.8% — though that share has risen from 14.2% two years earlier. Second, chronic absenteeism is 7.5%, compared with 32.1% district-wide, and the student–teacher ratio is 20.3:1, near the high end locally. Two trends are worth watching: the low-income subgroup slipped from the 90th percentile to the 75th in one year, and 4th grade math fell from 93.7% to 81.1%. On the plus side, special education students ranked in the 92nd percentile, above the school's own overall result, and 3rd grade ELA has already recovered from a similar dip.
