Summary

Sylvania Mccord Junior High School is a public middle school in Sylvania, Ohio, serving about 581 students in grades 6–8 as part of Sylvania Schools. It ranks 210th of 1,046 Ohio schools for 2025–2026, placing it in the 80th percentile with a 4-star rating, and it is the top-ranked of the district's three junior highs.

Attendance is one of McCord's clearest strengths: its chronic absenteeism rate is 9.6%, well below the 15.2% for Sylvania Schools and far below Sylvania Arbor Hills Junior High School (23.2%) and Sylvania Timberstone Junior High School (14.2%). Academically, English language arts is strong, with 7th grade at 80.9% and 8th grade at 76.5% proficiency, both above district and state averages. Advanced math is exceptional — Geometry and Algebra I end-of-course proficiency were both 100%. The notable exception is 8th grade math, where 49.6% of students were proficient, below the district's 57.9% and the state's 52.0%, and down sharply from 62.1% the prior year.

Every subgroup with 2025–2026 data performs at a 4-star level, though effectiveness for African American students (70th percentile) and low-income students (76th) has eased from earlier highs. About 21.5% of students qualify for free or reduced lunch, lower than its same-district peers but higher than Anthony Wayne Local and Perrysburg Exempted Village, the two nearby districts that outrank McCord overall. McCord sits comfortably above state averages and most local peers — a solid choice, though not quite at the level of nearby Anthony Wayne Junior High School or Perrysburg Junior High School, both 5-star schools.
