Summary

Mapleton Elementary School is a K–5 school in Ashland, Ohio, serving 363 students as part of the Mapleton Local district. In the 2025–2026 state rankings, the school placed 541 of 1,560 Ohio elementaries — the 65th percentile, with a 3-star rating — while the district ranked 314 of 773. That makes Mapleton a solid, slightly above-average local performer: it outranks nearby South Central Elementary School, Crestview Elementary School, Black River Education Center Elementary School, New London Elementary School, and Westwood Elementary School, but trails the strongest nearby schools — Northwestern Elementary School, Hillsdale Pk-6, and Taft Intermediate School.

English language arts is Mapleton's clearest academic strength. In 2025–2026, third-grade ELA proficiency was 80.4% and fifth-grade ELA 78.9% — both at or near the top of the local comparison group. Fourth-grade math was also a standout at 87.3%, well above the state's 67.3%, and fifth-grade science reached 75.4% versus 62.7% statewide. The exception was fifth-grade math, where 56.1% of students were proficient — below Ohio's 59.1% and below most nearby schools that serve grade 5. Since that subject was above state in the three prior years, it reads as a current weak spot rather than a long-running pattern.

Attendance has improved dramatically: chronic absenteeism fell from 27.2% in 2021–2022 to 10.1% in 2025–2026, better than the district's 16.6% and better than several nearby schools. Low-income students have performed exceptionally well, ranking in the 88th percentile with 4 stars in 2025–2026 and the 90th percentile with 5 stars in 2024–2025 — far above the school's overall standing. Special education students ranked in the 43rd percentile with 2 stars, suggesting room to grow. Mapleton spends $9,084 per student, less than several neighboring districts, with a student-teacher ratio of 18.4.
