Summary

Newton Falls Middle School is a small, high-poverty grade 4–5 school serving 119 students in the Newton Falls Exempted Village district in Newton Falls, Ohio, despite its “Middle School” name. In 2025–2026 it ranked 1038 of 1560 Ohio schools (33rd percentile, 2 stars)—the lowest in its displayed history and down from 44th percentile in 2024–2025. The district ranks 591 of 773 (24th percentile, 1 star). Free/reduced lunch was 97.74% in 2023–2024 and 97.79% in 2022–2023; chronic absenteeism was 29.7% in 2025–2026, better than the district’s 38.8% but still high.

Achievement is below Ohio in every tested subject and grade. Grade 4 ELA is the standout weakness at 42.4%, nearly 20 points below the state’s 61.8%; only McGuffey Pk-8 School’s 41.7% was lower nearby, while Jefferson Pk-8 School was slightly higher at 44.3%. Grade 5 ELA was 59.6%, below every listed nearby school. Math and science were also below state. The school generally trails Lordstown Elementary School, Jackson-Milton Elementary School, Southeast Intermediate Elementary School, and LaBrae Intermediate School. Its 29.7% chronic absenteeism is far above several nearby schools, including Lordstown Elementary School at 10.6%, Southeast Intermediate Elementary School at 12.9%, and LaBrae Intermediate School at 14.1%, though better than McGuffey Pk-8 School and Jefferson Pk-8 School.

Trends are concerning: grade 4 ELA fell from 64.6% in 2023–2024 to 54.2% in 2024–2025 and 42.4% in 2025–2026, and grade 5 math and science also dropped. Newton Falls Elementary School posted stronger 2025–2026 grade 3 results (75.5% math, 72.2% ELA); its prior grade 3 cohort scored 62.9% math and 52.4% ELA in 2024–2025, then 57.6% and 42.4% as grade 4 students at the middle school, suggesting a possible transition or middle-grade ELA weakness. Subgroup results are uneven: male students 49th percentile, low-income students 42nd, female students 25th, and special education students 2nd in 2025–2026; special education fell from 91st percentile in 2022–2023 to 48th to 2nd. The student-teacher ratio improved to 16.9 in 2024–2025, but school and district results are identical for grades 4–5, so there is no larger district sample to buffer outcomes.
