Crossroads Middle School consistently performs above the state average in Ohio State Tests, particularly in Algebra I, where the school has a proficiency rate of over 95% in recent years. The school's performance in English Language Arts is also noteworthy, with proficiency rates ranging from 54.5% to 66.9% across different grade levels, outpacing the state and district averages. However, the school's performance in mathematics is more mixed, with some grade levels exceeding the state and district averages, while others fall slightly behind.

When compared to nearby schools, Ross Middle School and Lakota Plains Junior School, which are part of the Ross Local and Lakota Local districts, respectively, consistently outperform Crossroads Middle School in academic proficiency. This may be due to the higher per-student spending at these schools, as well as their lower rates of chronic absenteeism compared to Crossroads Middle School. Additionally, Crossroads Middle School has a higher percentage of students from low socioeconomic backgrounds, which may contribute to the performance differences observed.
