Summary

Crestview Middle School is a grades 5–8 school in Columbiana, OH, serving 367 students as part of Crestview Local, a district ranked 189 of 773 in Ohio. The school itself ranks 209 of 1,046 for 2025–2026 — 80th percentile, 4 stars. That is a clear step up from 66th percentile in 2020–2021 and 72nd in 2024–2025, though still below its 2018–2019 peak of 86th percentile, so the school is recovering toward earlier highs rather than breaking new ground.

On 2025–2026 state tests, Crestview scores above the Ohio average in every tested grade in both math and English language arts. Algebra I is a flagship result: 100% proficient versus the state's 61.6%. Eighth grade science (74.7 vs. 61.2) is also well above state. The clearest weakness is 5th grade science, where 53.7% proficiency falls below the state's 62.7% and marks a sharp drop from 86.9 the year before. Nearby comparisons matter: same-town South Side Middle School and South Range Middle School both post 5-star, 92nd–96th percentile results and outscore Crestview in most subjects, and South Side serves a nearly identical share of low-income students (40.83% vs. 40.87%). Crestview generally outperforms Salem Junior High School, East Palestine Middle School, and Southeast Elementary School, and trades wins with Beaver Local Middle School and Boardman Glenwood Junior High.

Chronic absenteeism has fallen sharply, from 33.7% in 2021–2022 to 16.7% in 2025–2026 — better than the district's 18.7% and better than Boardman Center Intermediate School (16.8%), Beaver Local Middle School (21.8%), and Salem Junior High School (30.4%), but well above top local schools like South Range Middle School (8.4%), South Side Middle School (9.3%), Springfield Intermediate Middle School (10.0%), and Poland Middle School (10.9%). The student-teacher ratio improved to 15.9 from 20.5, better than many neighbors. Subgroup results are a bright spot: low-income students rank in the 87th percentile, and special education students rebounded from the 16th to the 60th percentile in one year.
