Summary

Olmsted Falls Middle School is a public school in Olmsted Falls, OH, serving grades 6–8 with 747 students as part of the Olmsted Falls City district. In 2025–2026 it ranked 253rd of 1,046 Ohio middle schools (76th percentile, 4 stars), above the state median but down from 100th of 1,038 (90th percentile, 5 stars) in 2016–2017. It was in the 86th percentile in 2017–2018 and 2018–2019, and since 2020–2021 has generally hovered in the 76th–81st percentile range. That makes it solidly above average but no longer top-tier.

Academically, math and science are the strongest areas. In 2025–2026, Math 7 proficiency was 73.3% and Math 8 was 73.4%, far above Ohio’s 48.6% and 52.0%. Math 7 edged out Lee Burneson Middle School (73.2%) and clearly beat Strongsville Middle School (59.6%), Lewis F Mayer Middle School (61.3%), North Ridgeville Academic Center (58.2%), Columbia Middle School (70.5%), and North Olmsted Middle School (58.0%); only Ranger High Technical Academy was higher at 77.8%. Science 8 was 76.1%, above the state’s 61.2% but below several nearby schools. English language arts is the relative weakness: ELA 8 was 61.9% and ELA 6 was 62.3%, above the state but lower than several nearby schools, including Lee Burneson Middle School, Strongsville Middle School, Columbia Middle School, and North Ridgeville Academic Center.

Chronic absenteeism has improved markedly, from 20.1% in 2023–2024 to 17.0% in 2024–2025 and 13.2% in 2025–2026, better than the district’s 14.2% and most nearby middle schools. The student-teacher ratio also improved to 15.0 in 2024–2025, and per-student spending was $8,606 in 2018–2019, lower than many surrounding districts. This suggests the school gets above-state results with relatively modest resources. The most concerning pattern is subgroup performance: gifted students ranked in the 85th percentile in 2025–2026, up from the 59th in 2023–2024, while low-income students were at the 49th percentile and special-education students at the 45th percentile, down sharply from the 73rd and 63rd percentiles. Families should see a school that is strong overall, especially in math, but with clear room to improve literacy and support for lower-performing groups.
