Summary

Hill Intermediate Elementary School in Bethel, OH, is a public school serving grades 3–5 with 308 students, part of the Bethel-Tate Local district, which ranks 275th of 773 Ohio districts (64th percentile, 3 stars). The school’s recent rank trend is a decline: after years in the 56th–68th percentile range and a 75th percentile peak (4 stars) in 2020–21, it fell to 737th of 1,558 (53rd percentile, 3 stars) in 2024–25 and 926th of 1,560 (41st percentile, 2 stars) in 2025–26. Free/reduced lunch was 54.87% in 2024–25, chronic absenteeism improved to 18.2% in 2025–26 from 26.6%, and the student-teacher ratio improved to 18.6 in 2024–25.

In 2025–26, achievement was below state and nearby schools, especially in math. Math proficiency was 50.5% in 3rd grade vs. the state’s 62.1%, 56.7% in 4th vs. 67.3%, and 56.3% in 5th vs. 59.1%. ELA was above state in 3rd (66.3% vs. 63.4%), below in 4th (56.7% vs. 61.8%), and near state in 5th (70% vs. 70.4%); 5th science was 56.3% vs. 62.7%. Hill’s math results were the weakest across grades 3–5: Williamsburg Elementary School posted 85.7%, 93.5%, and 81.8%; Hamersville Elementary School posted 73.7%, 95.7%, and 70.2%; and Amelia Elementary School posted 76%, 71.3%, and 72.5%. Fifth-grade math has been below state for four consecutive years, and the 2025–26 decline was broad rather than isolated to one subject or grade.

Subgroup effectiveness shows a bright spot in special education, which rose to the 77th percentile (4 stars) in 2025–26, while rankings for low-income, female, male, and gifted students weakened. Chronic absenteeism is better than the Bethel-Tate Local district’s 22.1% but still higher than several nearby schools, including Williamsburg Elementary School (6.8%), Batavia Elementary School (15.6%), Amelia Elementary School (16.0%), Monroe Elementary School (16.8%), Mt Orab Primary Elementary School (15.7%), and Hamersville Elementary School (17.4%). Resources and demographics do not fully explain the performance gap: Hamersville Elementary School and Mt Orab Primary Elementary School serve higher free/reduced lunch populations but produce stronger math results. Key priorities include upper-elementary math, the 2025–26 drop in 3rd/4th math and ELA, subgroup support, and preserving special education gains.
