Summary

Shawnee Elementary School is a K–5 school in Xenia, OH, serving 476 students as part of the Xenia Community City district, which ranks 472 of 773 in Ohio (39th percentile, 2 stars). Shawnee has moved from 2-star, bottom-40th-percentile results in 2022–2023 and 2023–2024 to 3 stars and the 53rd percentile in 2025–2026 (730 of 1,560), after a stronger 57th percentile in 2024–2025. Chronic absenteeism is 26.0% in 2025–2026, below the district’s 28.6% and down from 38.9% in 2021–2022 and 2022–2023.

Academically, Shawnee is above the state in 5 of 7 current tests. Bright spots are 5th-grade math (77.0%), 5th-grade ELA (74.2%), 4th-grade ELA (75.6%), and 5th-grade science (63.9%). Watch items are 3rd-grade ELA (52.0%) and 4th-grade math (56.1%), both below district and state. The seven-test average is about 67.1%, just below the Xenia Community City district’s 68.0% and above Ohio’s 63.8%. Within Xenia, Shawnee trails Tecumseh Elementary School (62nd percentile), Arrowood Elementary (61st), and McKinley Elementary School (58th), but leads Cox Elementary School (38th). Nearby higher performers include Valley Elementary School (68th), Mills Lawn Elementary School (82nd), Fairbrook Elementary School (86th), Cedarville Elementary School (90th), Main Elementary School (82nd), and Trebein Elementary School (96th), in the higher-ranked Beavercreek City, Yellow Springs Exempted Village, and Cedar Cliff Local districts.

Low-SES student effectiveness is a bright spot: Shawnee ranks in the 74th–78th percentile with 4 stars in 2025 and 2024, well above its overall percentile. Special education results are volatile, dropping from the 78th percentile in 2024 to 37th in 2025. Chronic absenteeism has improved, but at 26.0% Shawnee is tied with Arrowood Elementary for the highest among listed Xenia elementaries and far above the 6–9% range at Beavercreek City and Cedarville Elementary School. The 22.1 student–teacher ratio is the highest among nearby schools with reported data and has risen over three years. Shawnee is not an isolated low performer; it operates in a lower-ranked district while showing recent improvement. Some data are missing—free/reduced lunch, spending beyond 2018–2019, and some subgroup years—so blanks should not be read as zeros or weaknesses.
