Summary

Bellbrook Middle School is a grades 6–8 school with 665 students in Bellbrook, Ohio, a Greene County community about 10 miles southeast of Dayton, part of the Bellbrook-Sugarcreek Local district. In 2025–2026 it ranked 52nd of 1,046 Ohio middle schools (95th percentile, 5 stars) and has earned 5 stars every year in the record back to 2016–2017, while the district ranks 32nd of 773 Ohio districts.

Proficiency is strong across every subject: 8th-grade science 91.8, 6th-grade math 85.2, 7th-grade math 80.0, 8th-grade math 86.8, and ELA between 75.2 and 82.3, all far above Ohio averages. Algebra I end-of-course proficiency has been 100% for four straight reported years. Compared with nearby schools, Bellbrook outranks Jacob Coy Middle School (77th), Tower Heights Middle School (79th), Herman K Ankeney Middle School (167th), Hadley E Watts Middle School (226th), Kettering Middle School (245th), Magsig Middle School (246th), Van Buren Middle School (277th), and Warner Middle School (575th), though Oakwood Junior High School ranks higher at 12th and is stronger in ELA.

Bellbrook also has the lowest chronic absenteeism in its comparison group—4.4% in 2025–2026, down from 9.0% the prior year—and it achieves these results with the group’s highest student-teacher ratio (20.1 in 2024–25) and lowest per-pupil spending ($7,479 in 2018–19). Most student subgroups perform at a very high level, and low-SES students rose to the 86th percentile in 2025–2026 from 58th. The main watch item is the Asian-student subgroup, which ranked 47th of 78 schools (40th percentile, 2 stars) in 2025–2026; the comparison base is small and only one year is available. A “rank 1” for military-connected students rests on only 11 comparison schools, so it is less telling. Overall, Bellbrook is a sustained top-5% Ohio middle school with narrow, real questions to monitor.
