Summary

Delshire Elementary School is a K–5 school in Cincinnati, Ohio, serving 384 students as part of the Oak Hills Local district. In 2025–2026 it ranked 903rd of 1,560 Ohio elementary schools (42nd percentile, 2 stars), while its district ranked 250th of 773 (68th percentile, 3 stars). Delshire's history shows a long decline — from 61st percentile in 2015–2016 to 35th percentile in 2022–2023 — followed by a modest recovery to 42nd percentile.

Within its own district, Delshire trails C O Harrison Elementary School, 2.39 miles away, which enrolls 909 students and ranks 283rd of 1,560 (82nd percentile, 4 stars). C O Harrison outperforms Delshire in every tested subject and grade, including 4th grade math (94% vs 59.2%), 4th grade ELA (81.5% vs 56.3%) and 3rd grade math (77.6% vs 53.4%). Delshire's 5th graders beat state averages in science (65.2% vs 62.7%), math (63.6% vs 59.1%) and ELA (71.2% vs 70.4%), but 3rd and 4th grades fall below state averages in math and ELA. Compared with most nearby Cincinnati Public Schools and charters — Midway School, Leap Academy, Rees E. Price Academy, Roberts Academy, Carson School and Orion Academy — Delshire's 42nd percentile is generally higher, roughly tied with Covedale School and slightly above Dater Montessori School.

Chronic absenteeism improved from 29.4% in 2023–2024 to 20.2% in 2025–2026, below the district average and far better than nearby CPS schools (25.5% to 70.8%). Delshire spends less per student ($8,934 in 2018–2019) than C O Harrison ($9,504) and most nearby CPS schools, and its free/reduced lunch rate is 64.58%. Its effectiveness rankings for student groups vary widely, from a 4-star ranking for African American students to 1-star rankings for White and multiracial students. Test scores also swing year to year, so families should watch trends over time.
