Summary

Madison Elementary School is a PK–5 school serving 711 students at 5795 W Alexandria Rd in Middletown, OH, part of the Madison Local district. In 2025–2026 it ranked 534th of 1,560 Ohio elementary schools — the 66th percentile with 3 stars — putting it in the top third of the state and making it the highest-ranked school among the nearby options families might compare. The district picture is similar: Madison Local is in the 60th percentile statewide, versus the 36th percentile for Edgewood City School District and the 15th percentile for Middletown City.

Madison beat the Ohio proficiency rate in six of seven tested subject-and-grade areas in 2025–2026. Its biggest advantages were 3rd grade math (+15.3 points), 4th grade math (+15.0), and 3rd grade ELA (+14.0), and 5th grade science and 5th grade ELA were also above the state. The one exception was 4th grade ELA, at 56.6% versus 61.8% statewide. Chronic absenteeism is a standout strength: 13.2%, the lowest of any school compared, where rates run from 19.0% at Edgewood Primary School up to 46.7% at Rosa Parks Elementary School. Edgewood Intermediate School is the closest nearby peer at the 52nd percentile, yet Madison still outperforms it in six of seven tested areas.

Subgroup results are strong: low-income students ranked in the 77th percentile with 4 stars, special education students 73rd with 4 stars, and gifted and talented students reached the 97th percentile in 2023–2024. With roughly 51.8% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, an 18.2:1 student–teacher ratio, and $8,695 per-student spending, the school achieves these results without unusually small classes or top-level funding. Two items to watch: Madison eased from 4 stars and the 77th–78th percentile in 2022–2024 to 3 stars in 2024–2026, and 4th grade ELA slipped below the state this year.
