Summary

Ridgeview Elementary School is a K–5 school on Liberty Street in Ashtabula, Ohio, serving 397 students as the larger of the two elementaries in the Buckeye Local district, which ranks in the upper half of Ohio districts. Its standout result is a sharp 2025–26 jump: 608th of 1,560 Ohio elementary schools (61st percentile, 3 stars), up from 858th (45th percentile, 2 stars) — about 250 places in one year and its best showing in a decade. Over the longer run, though, results have swung between the 38th and 63rd percentiles rather than climbing, so this reads as a peak rather than a proven trend.

Against the state, Ridgeview scored above Ohio in six of seven tested areas in 2025–26, with the biggest edges in 5th grade math (about 15 points above) and 3rd grade ELA (about 11.6 points above). The most useful comparison is Kingsville Elementary School — same district, same K–5 grades, nearly identical enrollment (394 students), 4.75 miles away. Kingsville ranks 394th statewide (75th percentile, 4 stars), beats Ridgeview in most subjects including 4th and 5th grade math and 5th grade science, and has improved three years running. Meanwhile, the schools closest by distance belong to the Ashtabula Area City district (1 star); Superior Intermediate School and Erie Intermediate School post proficiency rates roughly half of Ridgeview's.

Ridgeview's clearest strength is how well it serves higher-need students: it ranks at the 84th percentile for low-income students and the 75th percentile for students with disabilities, though that second figure swung 51 percentile points in one year and is best read cautiously. Chronic absenteeism has fallen to 25.4% from 34.1% in 2021–22 and stays below the district's rate, but nearby schools run lower — Jefferson Elementary (17.7%), Austinburg Elementary School (18.9%) and Kingsville (18.4%) — making attendance the most concrete opportunity here. Note the state suppressed 2024–25 free/reduced-price lunch data, so poverty trends can only be read through 2023–24.
