Summary

The The Bridgeport School District - Elementary is a PK–4 school in Bridgeport, Ohio, serving 338 students as part of the Bridgeport Exempted Village district. Its most recent statewide standing is strong: in 2025-26 it ranked 239th of 1,560 Ohio elementary schools, placing in the 85th percentile with 4 stars. That is well above its own district's overall rank of 436th of 773 districts (44th percentile, 2 stars), making the elementary a clear bright spot. The improvement has been rapid — from 638th (60th percentile, 3 stars) in 2023-24 to 294th in 2024-25 to 239th now — moving the school from the middle of the pack to the top 15% of Ohio elementaries.

In 2025-26, Bridgeport scored above the Ohio average in all four tested areas: 3rd grade math (79.1% vs. 62.1%), 4th grade math (88.5% vs. 67.3%), 3rd grade ELA (86.0% vs. 63.4%), and 4th grade ELA (75.4% vs. 61.8%). Fourth grade ELA was once a weakness (49.1% in 2022-23) and is now a strength. The school's 2025-26 rank tops nearby St Clairsville Elementary School (312th), Buckeye North Elementary School (343rd), Leona Ave Middle School (468th) and Bellaire Elementary School (522nd). Its strongest signal is subgroup effectiveness: low-income students rank 38th of 1,467 (97th percentile, 5 stars) and special-education students 91st of 914 (90th percentile, 5 stars).

Chronic absenteeism was 22.1% in 2025-26, improved from 41.0% in 2021-22 and below the district's 27.1%, though higher than St Clairsville Elementary's 10.7%. The student-teacher ratio was 21.1 in 2024-25, higher than most nearby schools, and per-student spending was $9,419 in 2018-19. Two caveats: Bridgeport serves PK–4 while some nearby schools serve grades 5–8, so rank comparisons aren't perfectly grade-adjusted, and free/reduced-lunch data isn't reported for Bridgeport, so economic composition can't be directly compared.
