Summary

Baldwin Road Junior High School is a grades 6–8 middle school in Reynoldsburg, OH, serving 781 students as part of the Reynoldsburg City district, where 71.19% of students qualified for free or reduced lunch in 2024–2025. The school ranks 807 of 1,046 Ohio schools in 2025–2026 (23rd percentile, 1 star), and its history shows a long decline: it was 459 of 1,038 (56th percentile, 3 stars) in 2016–2017 and 665 of 1,048 (37th percentile, 2 stars) in 2022–2023. The district itself ranks 582 of 773 statewide (25th percentile, 1 star).

Chronic absenteeism is the most striking concern: 47.0% in 2025–2026, well above the district's 32.6%, roughly double Waggoner Road Junior High's 24.2%, and far above the Pickerington Local schools (9.0%–18.4% at Diley Middle School and Harmon Middle School). Waggoner Road, the closest same-district peer, outperforms Baldwin Road in nearly every subject — 8th science 59.6% vs 37.3%, 6th ELA 56.7% vs 32.0%, 8th ELA 59.0% vs 40.2% — despite a similar free/reduced lunch rate (67.32%). Baldwin Road does beat nearby Columbus City Schools District middle schools such as Johnson Park Middle School and Yorktown Middle School, and roughly matches Rosemore Middle School, but trails Groveport Madison Middle School North and both Pickerington Lakeview Junior High and Pickerington Ridgeview Junior High.

Academically, general math is the weakest area: grades 7 and 8 math proficiency sit in the low 20s, and grade 6 math is 28.6%. The bright spot is Integrated Math I at 100% proficient (versus 40.8% district and 34.4% state), which likely reflects a small advanced cohort rather than overall math performance. Special Education results are critically low (1st percentile, 0 stars), and English Language Learner students rank 12th percentile. Three priorities stand out: reduce chronic absenteeism, strengthen general math across grades 6–8, and improve special education and English Language Learner outcomes.
