Summary

Royal Manor Elementary School is a K–5 school in Gahanna, Ohio, serving 423 students as part of the Gahanna-Jefferson City district. In 2025–2026, SchoolDigger ranks it 631st of 1,560 Ohio elementary schools — the 60th percentile, at 3 stars — while the district overall ranks 223rd of 773 (71st percentile, 4 stars). The school has improved steadily, moving from 883rd of 1,577 (44th percentile, 2 stars) in 2023–2024, to 804th of 1,558 (48th percentile, 2 stars) in 2024–2025, to its current standing. That is real momentum, though still below its 2018–2019 level of the 63rd percentile.

Several measures stand out. Third grade math proficiency is 74.3%, above the district's 65.2% and the state's 62.1%, and 5th grade ELA is 88.7%, above the district's 82.9% and the state's 70.4%. Subgroup results are strong as well: African American students ranked at the 80th percentile (4 stars), English Language Learner students at the 88th percentile in 2024–2025 (4 stars), and low-socioeconomic-status students at the 58th percentile, up from 42nd and 41st in the two prior years. Against nearby non-Gahanna options, Royal Manor generally compares favorably — Cesar Chavez College Preparatory School is at the 55th percentile with 3 stars, while East Linden Elementary School, Cassady Alternative Elementary School, and Kids Care Elementary School each sit at 1 star. Within the district, though, Jefferson Elementary School, High Point Elementary School, Lincoln Elementary School, and Chapelfield Elementary School all rank higher, with Goshen Lane Elementary School the only same-district school ranked lower.

The clearest academic gaps are in 4th grade ELA (62.7%) and math (66.2%), and 5th grade math (58.1%) and science (62.9%) — all below the district and lower than every same-district Gahanna peer. Special education students ranked in the 26th–29th percentile over three recent years, each time at 1 star. Chronic absenteeism is 13.7%, better than the district's 17.3% but above Jefferson (5.5%), High Point (7.3%), and Lincoln (9.0%). The school also serves a higher-need population — 48.94% free/reduced lunch — than most higher-ranked Gahanna schools, and its student-teacher ratio of 16.5 is better than Lincoln, High Point, Jefferson, and Goshen Lane.
