Summary

Finneytown Elementary is a public K–8 school at 8850 Winton Rd in Cincinnati, OH, serving 648 students as part of the Finneytown Local district, which ranks 657th of 773 Ohio districts (15th percentile, 1 star). The school itself ranks 1316th of 1560 elementary schools in 2025–2026 (16th percentile), down from the 26th percentile in 2022–2023. In 2023–2024, 65.77% of students were eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, up from 61.32% the year before; the 2024–2025 figure is unknown.

Academically, Finneytown scores below the Ohio average in every tested subject and grade. Math is the clearest concern: 5th grade math proficiency was 16.7% versus 62.7% statewide, with 4th grade at 29.2% and 3rd grade at 29.5%. Math scores have declined across grades 3–6 over four years. English language arts is relatively stronger in 5th grade (51.2%) and 6th grade (41.1%) but weak in 4th grade (26.7%). For comparison, Winton Woods Elementary School — a similarly ranked nearby school — had higher 3rd grade math (40.8%) and 4th grade math (51.2%) despite a much larger student–teacher ratio (27.4 versus 18.5). Wyoming City schools score far higher, but serve far fewer low-income students.

Chronic absenteeism is a relative bright spot at 18.8% in 2025–2026, lower than the district's 26.0% and below most nearby high-poverty schools, though nearly 1 in 5 students are still chronically absent. Special education students rank in the 1st–7th percentile statewide in recent years, a serious equity concern. The most actionable priorities appear to be strengthening math instruction, improving special education outcomes, and sustaining attendance gains.
