Hopewell's student context differs from many nearby Dublin schools. Its free/reduced-lunch rate was 52.8% in 2024–25, up from 46.1% the prior year and 34.65% two years before — higher than every nearby school in the comparison set, including Riverside (45.6%), Olde Sawmill (44.32%), Granby (36.39%), Liberty (32.47%), and Brookside (30.41%), and far above Wyandot (3.93%) and Mary Emma Bailey (2.59%). Chronic absenteeism was 17.1% in 2025–26, above the district's 15.1% and well above Bailey (5.5%), Wyandot (6.0%), Tyler Run (4.4%), and Liberty (6.0%). Its student–teacher ratio of 18.4 is higher than Riverside (15.1), Wyandot (17.8), and Brookside (12.7), though below Bailey (20.7) and Albert Chapman (18.8).
Academically, results split sharply by grade. Fifth grade is the clear weak spot in 2025–26: science 45%, math 47.2%, and ELA 66.3% — science and math are the lowest among the listed nearby schools, and both fall below state averages (62.7% and 59.1%). The trend is downward: 5th-grade science fell from 76.8% in 2023–24 to 56.8% and then 45%. Earlier grades look better — 4th-grade math at 82.2% nearly matches the district's 82.5% and far exceeds Ohio's 67.3%, and 3rd-grade ELA at 73.2% beats Ohio's 63.4%. Across listed 3rd–5th grade subjects, Hopewell averages about 64.9%, close to the state's roughly 63.8% but far below the district's roughly 78.7%. Subgroup results are uneven: African American students (74th percentile) and English Language Learner students (65th percentile) are relative strengths, while Hispanic students dropped to the 15th percentile.
