Summary

Heywood Elementary School is a K–5 school in Troy, Ohio, serving 264 students as part of the Troy City district, and it sits within a couple of miles of five other Troy City elementary schools.

For nine consecutive years Heywood earned 2 stars and ranked between the 34th and 49th percentile among Ohio schools. In 2025-26 it jumped to 654th of 1,560 — the 58th percentile and its first 3-star rating in the ten years of data. Results are uneven by grade: Heywood beats the state in five of seven tested areas but beats its own district in only one (5th-grade math). Fifth grade is the standout, with math and ELA both at 81.8% proficient, while 3rd-grade math (58.1%) falls below the state. Science is the consistent soft spot, at or below the state and below the district in all four years of data. Several nearby schools — Concord Elementary School, Hook Elementary School, Newton Elementary School, Miami East Elementary and L. T. Ball Intermediate School — rank higher, but all serve substantially lower-poverty populations. The closest like-for-like comparison is Forest Elementary School, at the 45th percentile with a similar poverty rate.

Chronic absenteeism is the most durable improvement: cut from 35.1% to 16.9% over four years and beating the district average for the first time in 2025-26. With low-income students, Heywood ranks at the 65th percentile — above its own overall rank — but its special education subgroup sits at the 18th percentile with 1 star, the school's clearest gap. Note that the available per-student spending figure ($10,242) dates to 2018-19.
