Summary

Rapid Run Middle School is a 6–8 school in Cincinnati, Ohio, serving 642 students in the Oak Hills Local district. In 2025–2026 it ranked 207th of 1,046 Ohio middle schools — the 80th percentile with 4 stars — well above its district overall (68th percentile, 3 stars). The school has been remarkably consistent, earning 4 stars every year from 2015–2016 through 2025–2026, with percentiles between 78 and 88.

Test results are strong in most areas. Algebra I proficiency was 100%, far above the district's 79.5% and the state's 61.6%, and it has stayed at or above 95.5% for four years. Math 6 (84.6%) and Math 8 (80.8%) also far exceed state averages. The exception is Math 7 at 42.7%, below the district (43.7%) and state (48.6%) and down from 73.8% in 2023–2024 and 61.1% in 2024–2025 — likely a grade-level or cohort issue rather than a general math weakness. Attendance is a signature strength: chronic absenteeism fell from 23.7% in 2022–2023 to 16.0%, lower than the district and every nearby school, including Bridgetown Middle School (18.9%), Delhi Middle School (28.5%) and Taylor Middle School (18.6%). Among nearby schools, Bridgetown ranks higher overall (86th percentile) and beats Rapid Run in most tests, but Rapid Run leads in Math 6 and Algebra I.

Subgroup results are strong: Special Education students rank at the 86th percentile (91st in 2024–2025), low-income students jumped from the 56th to the 80th percentile, and African American students improved from the 62nd to the 78th. Female students rank higher than male students (85th vs. 74th). Per-student spending was $7,190 in 2018–2019, below Bridgetown and Delhi and far below nearby Cincinnati Public Schools, yet results are far stronger. Keep in mind that no free/reduced lunch percentage was available for Rapid Run, spending figures are old, and the 100% Algebra I result may reflect a selected group of students.
