Summary

Felicity-Franklin Local Junior High School is a tiny, very high-poverty public school serving 106 students in grades 7–8 in the village of Felicity, Clermont County, Ohio, as part of the Felicity-Franklin Local district. It is the smallest and narrowest-grade school in its local comparison group, while serving a student population where 97.35% qualify for free or reduced-price lunch.

For 2025–2026, the school ranks 721st of 1,046 Ohio middle schools (31st percentile, 2 stars), its lowest showing in a decade. From 2015–2016 through 2024–2025 it was stable between the 46th and 61st percentile, earning 3 stars in seven of those years. The one-year drop is an outlier locally: nearby West Clermont Middle School fell only slightly, while Bethel-Tate Middle School, Batavia Middle School, and Mt Orab Middle School held or improved. The decline is concentrated in mathematics: 8th-grade math proficiency is 19.2%, versus 52.0% statewide and 36.5% to 70.6% at nearby schools. Science (59.3%) and Algebra I (60.4%) remain near state levels, though neighbors post 95.2%–100% in Algebra I. In a bright spot, chronic absenteeism fell from about 40% to 25.8% in one year—the largest improvement in the comparison set—though it remains above the district rate and second-highest nearby.

Despite having the smallest classes (9.6:1) and highest per-pupil spending ($10,338) in the group, the school has the weakest results. Every reported subgroup lost ground in 2025–2026, pointing to a school-wide issue rather than one population-specific problem. Nearby schools show what may be possible in similar rural/suburban settings: Bethel-Tate Middle School ranks 73rd percentile with 4 stars, Batavia Middle School 65th, and Mt Orab Middle School 64th, with 8th-grade math proficiency of 53.7%–70.6%. The key question for parents and school leaders is why a well-resourced, small-class environment produced a sudden achievement drop in the same year attendance improved dramatically.
