Summary

Alton Hall Elementary School is a K–4 school in Galloway, Ohio, serving 504 students as part of the South-Western City district on the west side of the Columbus area. In 2025–26 the school ranked 1,084th of 1,560 Ohio schools — the 31st percentile, or 2 stars — a step up from a run of 1-star years and its best showing since 2016–17, though still below the state median. The district itself ranks 508th of 773 Ohio districts (34th percentile, 2 stars).

Test scores remain below state averages in all four tested areas: Math 3 at 50.5%, Math 4 at 59.1%, ELA 3 at 54.6%, and ELA 4 at 46.2%. ELA 4 is the clearest weak point, 15.6 points below the state. Compared with nearby schools, Alton Hall outperforms Stiles Elementary School, Prairie Lincoln Elementary School, Bolton Crossing Elementary, Georgian Heights Alt Elementary School, and Eakin Elementary School on most or all comparable 2025–26 tests. It is higher than Prairie Norton Elementary School in Math 3 and ELA 3 but lower in Math 4 and ELA 4. Its closest in-district peer, Darby Woods Elementary School, posts a higher rank and stronger Math 4/ELA 4 results even though 72.20% of its students qualify for free/reduced lunch versus 61.51% at Alton Hall.

Chronic absenteeism is a relative bright spot: 26.4% in 2025–26 versus 32.1% districtwide, and better than the district every year shown. Still, it rose from 21.7% in 2024–25, and Darby Woods (19.3%) and Hilliard Horizon Elementary School (9.5%) in neighboring Hilliard City do better. Results also vary widely across student groups: English Language Learner and Special Education students have improved, with Special Education moving from 0 stars to 2, while low-income students remain lower. Two caveats: spending figures date to 2018–19, and blank free/reduced-lunch entries for nearby schools mean unreported, not zero.
