Summary

Zane Grey Elementary School at 711 Fess St in Zanesville, Ohio, is a PK–6 school serving 915 students in the Zanesville City district — by far the largest elementary among nearby comparison schools (next are Maysville Elementary School at 737 students and West Muskingum Elementary School at 691).

By state rankings, Zane Grey has been a low-performing school for a decade. In 2025–26 it placed 1153rd of 1560 Ohio elementaries (26th percentile, 1 star), and in ten years of reporting it has never exceeded the 33rd percentile or 2 stars. All nine of its 2025–26 state test results fell below both its district and the state, by an average of roughly 17–18 percentage points against the state. Grade 3 is the weakest point (37.2% in English language arts, 38.3% in math), while grade 6 math (55.0%) is essentially at the state level. The biggest year-over-year drop was grade 5 science, from 59.5% to 44.3%.

The clearest evidence of progress is attendance: chronic absenteeism fell from 40.1% in 2022–23 to 27.7% in 2025–26 — about 12 points — moving the school below the district's 30.0% rate and below National Road (29.1%), a same-district peer. Resources do not appear to explain the achievement gap: Zane Grey's student–teacher ratio of 16.9 is better than most nearby schools, and its per-student spending is mid-pack. John McIntire Elementary School, 2 miles away in the same district with a nearly identical ratio of 17.2, ranks at the 49th percentile and outperforms Zane Grey by 41.8 points in grade 4 math, and Nashport Elementary School, 8 miles away, beats it by 54.4 points. Parents should also know that special education results have consistently landed in the bottom quarter of Ohio schools, and district data do not report free/reduced-lunch percentages here.
