Summary

Milton-Union Elementary School is a K–5 school in West Milton, Ohio, a small village northwest of Dayton, serving 656 students as part of the Milton-Union Exempted Village district. Its 2025–2026 rank is 671 of 1,560 elementary schools (57th percentile, 3 stars), up from the 48th and 49th percentiles in the two prior years but below its earlier highs of the 72nd percentile in 2017–2018 and 88th percentile in 2015–2016. The school outranks its own district, which sits at 43rd percentile with 2 stars.

Academically, reading is the bright spot: grades 3, 4 and 5 all scored above the Ohio state average in ELA (68.7% vs. 63.4%, 64.7% vs. 61.8%, and 73.6% vs. 70.4%). Math is more uneven — grades 3 and 4 were at or above the state, but 5th-grade math was 52.1% proficient vs. 59.1% statewide, and that subject has swung widely (82.3% in 2022–2023, then 63.4%, 41.4% and 52.1%). Science was slightly above the state at 63.8% vs. 62.7%. Chronic absenteeism is 14.9%, well below the district's 19.9%, though higher than nearby high performers such as L. T. Ball Intermediate School (5.0%), Concord Elementary School (5.8%), Franklin Monroe Elementary School (3.0%) and Newton Elementary School (7.8%).

Locally, Milton-Union is middle of the pack: Northmoor Elementary School, L. T. Ball, Concord, Franklin Monroe and Newton rank between the 82nd and 92nd percentiles, while Milton-Union sits closer to Heywood Elementary School (58th), Union Elementary School (52nd) and Englewood Hills Elementary School (51st). The student-teacher ratio rose to 17.7 in 2024–2025 from 14.5 in 2022–2023, and per-student spending was $9,019 in 2018–2019, the only year available. Subgroup rankings show special education students at 29th percentile (1 star) and low-income students at 56th percentile (3 stars). Free/reduced lunch data is not reported. Overall: real strengths in reading and attendance, with math and targeted subgroup support as the clearest areas to watch.
