Summary

Highland Elementary School is a K–4 school in Stow, Ohio, serving 284 students as part of the Stow-Munroe Falls City School District. In 2025–2026 it ranks 309th of 1,560 Ohio elementary schools — the 80th percentile, with 4 stars — above its district's 73rd percentile and in the top fifth of the state. Its ranking has ranged from the 68th percentile in 2023–2024 to the 88th in 2021–2022, so it is a consistently strong school with some year-to-year movement.

The clearest strength is 4th-grade math: 93.9% proficiency in 2025–2026, which is 12.5 points above the district and 26.6 points above the state, and the highest among the nearby schools compared — ahead of Woodland Elementary School (88.1%), Riverview Elementary School (84.8%), and Gordon Dewitt Elementary School (77.0%). English language arts is above state averages every year, with 3rd-grade ELA a particular bright spot at 81.5%. Chronic absenteeism is just 8.4%, roughly half the district's 16.5% and lower than most nearby schools; only Fishcreek Elementary School (6.0%) was lower.

Two things to watch: 3rd-grade math (72.3%) is only slightly above the district and much softer than the school's 4th-grade results, and Woodland Elementary School outperforms Highland in 4th-grade ELA, 83.1% to 75.5%. Subgroup results are strong for male students (97th percentile in 2025–2026), low-income students (85th percentile), and special education students, but lower for female students (61st percentile) and gifted students (32nd percentile in 2023–2024, the only year available). Class sizes have improved, with a student-teacher ratio of 16.2 in 2024–2025.
