Summary

Warner Middle School serves 728 students in grades 5–9 at 600 Buckskin Trl in Xenia, Ohio, a city near Dayton, and is part of the Xenia Community City district. Its grade span is broader than most nearby middle schools, which typically serve grades 6–8 or 4–7/5–6, so direct comparisons with neighbors are imperfect.

In 2025–2026 Warner ranked 575th of 1,046 Ohio schools, in the 45th percentile with 2 stars — a level it has held fairly steadily for a decade, generally between the 35th and 45th percentile. Proficiency results are mixed: it is close to the state average in 8th-grade Science (61.1% vs. 61.2%), 6th-grade Math (56.7% vs. 56.2%), and 8th-grade ELA (60.1% vs. 58.3%), but trails in 7th-grade Math (41.0% vs. 48.6%), 8th-grade Math (38.3% vs. 52.0%), and 7th-grade ELA (50.5% vs. 62.7%). Algebra I is a standout: 100% proficiency, versus 57.7% across its district and 61.6% statewide. For contrast, Jacob Coy Middle School ranks in the 93rd percentile, with 8th-grade Math at 77.9% and 7th-grade ELA at 80.9%, and Bellbrook Middle School ranks in the 95th.

Chronic absenteeism is 30.7%, well above Bellbrook Middle School's 4.4%, Tower Heights Middle School's 10.6%, and Jacob Coy's 12.5%, and about even with Fairborn Middle School's 30.5%, though it has improved from 38.4% in 2022–2023. Among student groups, results vary: low-income students rank in the 58th percentile and gifted students in the 76th, while special education students fall in the 14th percentile. Class size (16.5 students per teacher) and spending ($9,070 per pupil) are mid-range or higher than several higher-ranked neighbors, so resources alone do not explain the gaps.
