Summary

Groveport Madison Middle School North is a grades 6–8 school in Columbus, OH, serving 485 students in the Groveport Madison Local district, where roughly 74% of students are economically disadvantaged. The school ranks 719th of 1,046 Ohio middle schools (31st percentile, 2 stars)—above its district’s 24th percentile but still in the lower third of the state. Its rank has stayed remarkably stable over ten years, never leaving the 30th–38th percentile band.

Inside the school, grade 7 is a severe weak point: in 2025‑2026, 7th grade math proficiency was just 12.2% (district 32.4%, state 48.6%), the lowest among the three Groveport middles, including Groveport Madison Middle School South (29.9%) and Groveport Madison Middle School Central (49.0%). Grade 8 is the opposite—math proficiency of 57.7% beats both the district (50.3%) and the state (52%), and is the highest of the three. Chronic absenteeism is 32.7%, slightly worse than the district (31.2%) and a reversal from last year’s 26.9%; it is far higher than nearby Diley Middle School (9.0%) and Harmon Middle School (9.6%) in the Pickerington Local district, but better than Johnson Park Middle School (67.4%).

For parents, the most actionable concerns are the 7th grade math collapse, rising absenteeism, and a sharp 2025‑26 decline in effectiveness for low-income students (35th percentile) and special education students (7th percentile, 0 stars). End-of-course results like 100% Algebra I proficiency look great but are district-wide patterns, not unique to North. Compared to nearby schools facing similar economic conditions, North holds its ground—outperforming Rosemore Middle School (19th), Baldwin Road Junior High School (23rd), and all Columbus City Schools District schools like Yorktown Middle School (14th) and Sherwood Middle School (16th)—while trailing more affluent Canal Winchester Middle School (67th percentile) and Pickerington schools. The bottom line: a stable, mid-to-lower-tier school that must fix grade 7 and absenteeism to avoid slipping further.
