Summary

Northwood Elementary is a K–4 school in Marysville, Ohio, serving 617 students and standing as the largest of the nearby Marysville Exempted Village elementary schools in this comparison set. In 2025–2026 it ranked 342nd of 1,560 Ohio schools — the 78th percentile with 4 stars — above its district's 73rd percentile. The school has been consistently above average statewide but has cooled from its peak of 94th percentile in 2021–2022 and 93rd in 2020–2021, both 5-star years.

Achievement is strong across all four tested areas. Northwood beat both the district and the state in 3rd- and 4th-grade math and English language arts in 2025–2026, highlighted by 88.3% proficiency in 4th-grade math — 21 points above the state and 10 points above the district. Among same-district schools, Navin Elementary School (79th percentile) edges ahead overall and in 3rd-grade math, and Edgewood Elementary School posts higher 4th-grade ELA; Northwood is more balanced than most. The closest school, Mill Valley Elementary School just 0.53 miles away, is far lower-performing at the 51st percentile, while Raymond Elementary School splits sharply — 80.0% in 3rd-grade math but 42.6% in 4th-grade math.

Chronic absenteeism is a comparative advantage: 9.1% in 2025–2026, down from 12.8% and well below the district's 15.9%, and lower than Navin, Edgewood, and Mill Valley — though slightly above Raymond's 7.7%. Special education effectiveness is a clear strength at the 86th percentile, above the school's overall rank, while low-income student effectiveness is the weakest measure at the 65th percentile. Northwood manages this with a relatively high student-teacher ratio of 24.1 and a free/reduced lunch rate of 19.12% — lower than its same-district peers but higher than Dublin City schools such as Glacier Ridge Elementary (4.11%) and Abraham Depp Elementary (3.66%). Per-student spending of $9,985 dates to 2018–2019 and is historical context only.
