Summary

Granville Middle School is a grades 7–8 school serving 413 students in Granville, Ohio, part of the Granville Exempted Village district. It is one of Ohio's strongest middle schools: in 2025–26 it ranked 62nd of 1,046 middle schools statewide — the 94th percentile — and earned 5 stars, mirroring its district's strong standing. It has earned 5 stars every year in the available history, peaking at 28th statewide in 2023–24.

Test scores are well above the state in every core subject. Eighth-grade science (85.3%) and both 7th- and 8th-grade ELA (89.1% and 85.8%) lead all nearby schools, and advanced end-of-course exams in Algebra I, Geometry, and Biology show 100% proficiency in every year shown. The clearest soft spot is 7th-grade math: 65.7% proficient is far above the state's 48.6%, but trails Johnstown Middle School (81.8%) and Heath Middle School (77.1%), and is down from 82.0% in 2023–24. Chronic absenteeism is a defining strength at 8.0%, far below Johnstown (14.0%) and Heath (14.6%), and dramatically lower than Heritage Middle School (46.2%) and Wilson Middle School (31.4%); only same-district Granville Intermediate School is lower, at 5.3%.

The school appears especially effective with special education students (22nd of 579, 96th percentile) and low-income students (85th percentile in 2025–26, after 95th–96th in the two prior years). Per-student spending of $10,969 (2018–19) was the highest among nearby schools, and its student-teacher ratio improved to 17.3 — moderate locally, so its advantage is less about small classes than about consistently high outcomes and strong attendance. Note that free/reduced-lunch data and recent spending figures are not available, which limits some comparisons.
