Summary

Riverside Elementary School is a K–5 school in Dublin, Ohio, serving 318 students as part of the Dublin City district. In 2025–2026 it ranked 682nd of 1,560 Ohio elementary schools — the 56th percentile with 3 stars — up from 805th of 1,558 (48th percentile, 2 stars) the prior year and the highest percentile in the provided 10-year history. Still, Dublin City overall ranks 145th of 773 Ohio districts (81st percentile, 4 stars), so Riverside sits below the typical Dublin school profile.

Its 2025–2026 state test results are mixed. Third-grade English language arts is a genuine bright spot at 80.8% proficiency, above both the Dublin district average (78.7%) and the state average (63.4%). Riverside also beats the state in 3rd-grade math (69.2% vs. 62.1%) and 5th-grade math (62.2% vs. 59.1%). The clearest gaps are 5th-grade science — 62.7%, exactly the state average but 14.7 points below the district — and 5th-grade ELA at 68.6%, below both the state (70.4%) and district (84.2%). Fourth-grade math, at 65.5%, is slightly below the state's 67.3%. Locally, Riverside trails Mary Emma Bailey Elementary School, Griffith Thomas Elementary School, Brookside Elementary School, and Indian Run Elementary School, roughly matches Hopewell Elementary, and leads Olde Sawmill Elementary School, Daniel Wright Elementary School, and Gables Elementary School.

Context matters here. About 45.6% of Riverside students were eligible for free or reduced lunch in 2024–2025 — higher than several higher-ranked Dublin peers — while its 15.1 student-to-teacher ratio is lower than most nearby Dublin elementaries and its per-student spending was the highest among comparison schools, so class size and funding don't appear to be the main constraints. Chronic absenteeism improved from 19.3% to 16.4%, but that is still above the district's 15.1% and well above Bailey (5.5%), Brookside (9.3%), and Indian Run (10.7%). The most important internal concern is effectiveness for low-socioeconomic-status students, where Riverside has ranked in the 30s percentile with 2 stars for three straight years.
