Summary

Strongsville Middle School is a grades 6–8 school serving 1,327 students in the Strongsville City district in Strongsville, Ohio, a large suburban community southwest of Cleveland. It ranks #150 of 1,046 Ohio middle schools (86th percentile, 4 stars), and its district ranks 94 of 773 (88th percentile). The school has landed between the 83rd and 91st percentile every year for a decade — an unusually steady record — and every tested subject clears the state average by double digits.

Locally, Strongsville sits in a tight top cluster with North Royalton Middle School (#138) and Columbia Middle School (#172), and is well clear of larger schools such as Brunswick Middle School (79th percentile), Berea-Midpark Middle School (52nd), and Greenbriar Middle School (43rd). Among middle schools with 1,000 or more students, only North Royalton ranks higher. Strongsville delivers these results while spending $9,221 per student — roughly $2,700–$3,200 less than Columbia, North Royalton, and Berea-Midpark — and with a student–teacher ratio of 14.9, better than most nearby schools. Advanced math is a standout: Algebra I at 99.3% proficient and Geometry at 100%, far above district and state figures.

Three things are worth watching. Seventh-grade math (59.6%) trails Olmsted Falls Middle School, Columbia, North Royalton, and Brunswick by 8 to 14 points — the only subject where every higher-ranked local peer beats it. Results for students with disabilities sit at the 47th percentile statewide (2 stars), down from the 74th percentile two years earlier. And chronic absenteeism is 17.2%, which is 3.6 points above the district's 13.6% and has not closed in five years. Eighth-grade science also slipped from 85.2% to 75.5% in a single year.
