Summary

Patrick Henry Middle School is a grades 5–8 school in Hamler, Ohio, serving 282 students as part of Patrick Henry Local, a district that ranks 129th of 773 Ohio districts. The school ranked 184th of 1,046 Ohio middle schools in 2025–2026, placing it in the 82nd percentile with a 4-star rating — the same 4-star rating it has earned every year from 2015–2016 through 2025–2026, with percentiles mostly between 75 and 86.

Test scores are a clear strength. In 2025–2026, Patrick Henry scored above Ohio in every tested grade and subject, with especially wide margins in math: 5th-grade math at 90.0 versus the state's 59.1, 8th-grade math at 78.7 versus 52.0, and Algebra I at 100% proficiency compared with 61.6% statewide (a result that may reflect a small advanced cohort). Among nearby schools, Patrick Henry sits in the upper-middle tier — clearly ahead of Otsego Junior High, Defiance Middle School, Tinora Middle School, and North Baltimore Middle School, but trailing Miller City Middle School, Liberty Center Middle School, Pandora-Gilboa Middle School, and Van Buren Middle School. Its most competitive nearby results are 5th-grade math, 8th-grade ELA, and Algebra I; 8th-grade science and 6th-grade ELA are comparatively weaker spots.

Chronic absenteeism has improved dramatically, dropping from 25.0% in 2021–2022 to 8.3% in 2025–2026 — now better than the district's 9.4% and better than several nearby schools. The student-teacher ratio is favorable at 14.1, lower than most nearby middle schools. Female students perform at the 86th percentile, and special education students have improved to the 73rd percentile. Areas to watch include an achievement gap between male and female students of roughly 8–11 percentile points and a recent decline in the low-socioeconomic-status subgroup, from the 87th percentile in 2023–2024 to the 69th in 2025–2026.
