Summary

New Richmond Middle School is a grades 6–8 school in New Richmond, Ohio, serving 441 students as part of the New Richmond Exempted Village district. The district ranks 401st of 773 Ohio districts, and the school ranks 536th of 1,046 middle schools in 2025–2026, placing it near the state middle. It was once higher—79th percentile and 4 stars in 2015–2016—but has settled in the middle tier. About 51.25% of students were economically disadvantaged in 2024–2025, per-student spending was $6,445, and the student-teacher ratio was 21:1, the highest among nearby schools. Chronic absenteeism has improved sharply, from 41.4% in 2021–2022 to 14.9% in 2025–2026.

Academically, the school has a split profile. English language arts is near or slightly above state averages, with 8th-grade ELA at 59.3% versus 58.3% statewide, and 8th-grade science at 65.7% versus 61.2%. Algebra I is exceptionally strong at 100% proficient, more than 38 points above the state average. But grade-level math is a weakness: 8th-grade math is 36.5% proficient versus 52.0% statewide, and 7th-grade math is 38.1% versus 48.6%. The school’s overall math average is roughly 43.1%, about 9 points below the state. Compared with nearby schools, it trails Milford Middle School (85.2% in 8th math), Indian Hill Middle School (87.2%), Mariemont Junior High School (93.6%), and Bethel-Tate Middle School (70.6%). It outperforms Shroder Middle School, Clermont Northeastern Middle School, and Felicity-Franklin Local Junior High School in ELA and science.

Subgroup results are uneven: gifted and talented students ranked in the 93rd percentile with 5 stars in 2024–2025, a major strength. Low-income students ranked in the 38th percentile in 2025–2026, and special education results vary. Attendance is now better than the district’s 19.1% and most nearby schools, though Indian Hill Middle School, Mariemont Junior High School, and Nagel Middle School remain lower. Overall, the school is middle-of-the-pack with strengths in science, ELA, advanced math, gifted-student outcomes, and attendance, but its most urgent concern is grade-level math—especially in 7th and 8th grades. The contrast with Bethel-Tate Middle School, which has similar poverty but stronger math, suggests targeted math instruction could help close the gap.
