Summary

Wynford Elementary School in Bucyrus, Ohio, is a PK–5 school of 569 students in Crawford County and the elementary campus of the Wynford Local district. In 2025–26 it ranked 710th of 1,560 Ohio elementary schools — the 54th percentile, three stars — continuing a modest climb from the low 40s a decade ago, though it sits slightly below its own district's aggregate standing (254th of 773, 67th percentile).

The clearest strength is upper-elementary math. Fifth graders reached 84.7% proficiency against 59.1% statewide (+25.6 points), and fourth grade hit 79.2% against 67.3% (+11.9) — a figure that has stayed at 79% or above for four straight years. Chronic absenteeism is also a bright spot: 11.1%, better than the Wynford Local district's 14.4% every year for five years, and about six points better than nearby Bucyrus Elementary School (17.0%). The school does this at $8,219 per student, the lowest figure in its comparison set — though that number is from 2018–19 and describes historical, not current, spending. Poverty is rising (52.7% free/reduced lunch) while class sizes have improved (18.1 students per teacher down to 16.6).

Two areas need attention. Fifth-grade science has trailed the state every year on record — 55.3% vs. 62.7% this year — and in the same grade and year, 84.7% of students were proficient in math but only 55.3% in science, a 29-point internal gap that points to something subject-specific. Fourth-grade English language arts has fallen for four straight years (75% → 58.3%) and is now below the state's 61.8%. For context, East Elementary School and South Elementary School rank at the 95th and 91st percentiles, Buckeye Central Elementary School and Mohawk Elementary School in the mid-80s, while Wynford Elementary School at the 54th sits with Hannah Crawford Elementary School grades 3 -5 and Liberty Elementary School, ahead of Galion Intermediate Elementary School (32nd) and Bucyrus Elementary School (26th).
