Summary

Crooksville Elementary School is a PK–4 school in Crooksville, OH, serving 450 students in the Crooksville Exempted Village district. Its 2025–26 rank is 863 out of 1,560 schools—the 45th percentile with 2 stars—while the district ranks 597 out of 773, or the 23rd percentile with 1 star. The school has improved from the 27th percentile in 2021–22 but remains below its 2018–19 peak of the 57th percentile and 3 stars.

Academically, Crooksville’s clearest bright spot is 3rd grade English language arts, where 73.1% of students were proficient versus 63.4% statewide, above most nearby schools except Duncan Falls Elementary School, Millcreek Elementary School, and Junction City Elementary School. Fourth grade ELA remains below the state average at 58.0% versus 61.8%, though the gap has narrowed over four years. Math is below state in both grades: 57.7% in 3rd grade math against 62.1% statewide, and 59.3% in 4th grade math against 67.3% statewide, with year-to-year swings. The school’s strongest subgroup results are for Special Education Students, at the 85th percentile with 4 stars, and Low Socio Economic Status Students, at the 63rd percentile with 3 stars. Among nearby schools, Crooksville is mid-pack: above Zane Grey Elementary School and New Lexington Elementary School, but below Duncan Falls Elementary School, West Elementary School, and Junction City Elementary School.

Attendance and staffing are watch items. Chronic absenteeism has risen from 11.9% in 2021–22 to 20.4% in 2025–26; it is still below the district’s 22.9%, but higher than several nearby schools, including Duncan Falls Elementary School (13.3%), West Elementary School (13.4%), Junction City Elementary School (15.4%), Somerset Elementary School (16.0%), and Maysville Elementary School (18.3%). Crooksville’s 2024–25 student-teacher ratio is 25.1, the highest among nearby schools, where ratios range from 11.1 to 19.3. Its 2018–19 per-student spending was $8,341, mid-to-low for the group. Overall, the school shows strengths in 3rd grade ELA and for Special Education and low-income students, but rising absenteeism, a high student-teacher ratio, and below-state math and 4th grade ELA results are challenges.
