Summary

Wickliffe Elementary School is a K–5 school on Wickliffe Road in Upper Arlington, Ohio, serving 479 students as part of the Upper Arlington City district, one of Ohio's strongest school systems. Statewide, Wickliffe ranks 364th of 1,560 Ohio elementary schools — the 77th percentile, earning 4 stars. That is a solid, above-average standing, and it caps a long climb: the school sat in the mid-60s percentile range a decade ago and is now performing near its decade best.

Within its own district, Wickliffe is the lowest-ranked of its Upper Arlington peers in this comparison — Barrington Road Elementary School (96th percentile), Greensview Elementary School (97th), Tremont Elementary School (89th) and Windermere Elementary School (98th) all rank higher, though Wickliffe has the smallest classes of that group (15.7 students per teacher) and the lowest per-pupil spending. Compared with nearby Columbus City schools, the gap runs the other way: Wickliffe outranks Cranbrook Elementary School and Winterset Elementary School by 37 to 43 percentile points, and its 5.1% chronic absenteeism rate is far below those schools' 29.6% and 31.0% — and below the district's 9.0%.

English language arts is the school's engine, holding steady around 81–89% proficiency at every grade level for four straight years and running 16–19 points above the state. Special education students rank at the 93rd percentile (5 stars), well above the school's overall standing, so the school serves its highest-need students especially well. The clearest soft spot is 5th grade: math has been the weakest grade every year, and 5th grade science fell to 59.5% in 2025–26 — the one subject where Wickliffe trails Ohio's 62.7% average.
