Summary

United Elementary School in Hanoverton, Ohio is a K–8 school serving 431 students as part of the United Local district, and it stands out locally as the only school in its comparison group that educates students all the way through 8th grade. The school is ranked 660th of 1,560 in Ohio for 2025–2026 (58th percentile, 3 stars), which places it above its district's overall 2-star, 49th-percentile standing. It has generally held a 3-star rating in recent years, with 4-star peaks in 2016–2017 and 2022–2023.

United's strongest results come at the middle level. On 2025–2026 state tests, 8th graders scored 79.3% proficient in math (state: 52%), 70% in ELA (state: 58.3%), and 70% in science (state: 61.2%), while Algebra I End of Course reached 100% (state: 61.6%). No nearby school in this group posts comparable 7th/8th grade or Algebra I results, largely because most, such as Washington Elementary School, Leetonia Elementary School, and West Branch Early Learning Center, serve only early grades. Elementary performance is also consistently above state, including 4th math (79.5 vs 67.3), 5th ELA (80.3 vs 70.4), and 5th science (73.7 vs 62.7), though nearby B L Miller Elementary School and Washington score higher in a few specific grades.

Two areas are worth watching. Sixth grade is the clearest dip: math was 50.7% and ELA 47.8%, both below state, suggesting the transition year needs support. Attendance, however, has improved sharply: chronic absenteeism fell from 31.8% in 2021–2022 to 11.6% in 2025–2026, now below the district's 13.2% and better than Alliance Elementary School at Rockhill (22.4%) and McKinley Elementary School (18.9%). Class sizes are favorable at 14.8 students per teacher, and the school ranks highly for special education students. Overall, United is a solid, above-state school with a distinctive K–8 profile.
