Summary

Locust Corner Elementary School is a public elementary school in Cincinnati, Ohio, serving 367 students in grades PK-5. The school is part of the New Richmond Exempted Village School District, which is ranked 373 out of 828 districts in the state and has a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger.

While Locust Corner Elementary has maintained a 3-star rating, its performance has been consistently below state and district averages on Ohio State Tests. For example, in the 2024-2025 school year, the school's 5th-grade science proficiency rate was 74.4%, compared to the district's 78.1% and the state's 63.4%. Similarly, the school's 3rd-grade math proficiency rate was 55.8%, compared to the district's 66.7% and the state's 64.4%. Additionally, Locust Corner has had relatively high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 17.5% to 23.7% over the past few years, which is significantly higher than the state average.

When compared to nearby schools, Locust Corner Elementary generally underperforms. For instance, Maddux Elementary School, which is part of the higher-performing Forest Hills Local School District, consistently outperforms Locust Corner Elementary in test scores and other metrics. Locust Corner's low per-student spending of $11,237 (2018-2019 school year) and higher percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch (around 40%) may contribute to the school's underperformance. While the school's statewide ranking has fluctuated over the years, targeted interventions and increased funding could help improve student outcomes at Locust Corner Elementary.
