Summary

Oak Hill Elementary is a PK–5 school at 401 Evans St in rural Appalachian Oak Hill, OH, serving 538 students as part of Oak Hill Union Local. In 2025-26 it ranked 720 of 1,560 Ohio elementary schools—54th percentile, 3 stars—stronger than its district's 47th-percentile, 2-star rating. The important context is its trajectory: after reaching the 75th–76th percentile with 4 stars in 2020-21 and 2021-22, the school has declined for four straight years, a 22-percentile-point drop to its weakest standing since 2016-17.

Academics are mixed. Across seven tested measures, Oak Hill averages 68.1% proficient against a state average of 63.8%. Math in grades 4–5 is a major strength: 4th grade math is 90.1% (state: 67.3%) and 5th grade math is 77.3% (state: 59.1%). Third grade ELA is the clear weakness at 46.9% (state: 63.4%)—the lowest among the nearby schools compared. Oak Hill's 54th-percentile rank sits behind Bloom-Vernon Elementary (85th), Jackson Westview Elementary (81st), Jackson Southview Elementary (61st), Southwestern Elementary (59th), and Jackson Northview Elementary (58th), but ahead of Rio Grande Elementary (48th), Vinton Elementary (43rd), and Wellston Intermediate (43rd). Both Bloom-Vernon and Jackson Westview rank well above Oak Hill; Jackson Westview outperforms Oak Hill on every 2025-26 measure, while Oak Hill's 4th grade math is second-highest of the ten schools.

The best-kept success story is attendance: chronic absenteeism fell from 24.9% to 13.7% in one year, while the district's rate dropped to 22.8%. Oak Hill also has the lowest student-teacher ratio in the comparison group (13.1) and the third-lowest per-pupil spending ($8,408), yet it outperforms both Wellston schools, which spend $11,500–$11,800 per pupil. Targeted supports are strong: special education students rank at the 76th percentile and low-income students at the 74th percentile, both 4 stars and above the school's overall 54th percentile. Bottom line: Oak Hill is a mid-pack school with strong 4th–5th grade math, impressive attendance gains, effective targeted supports, and lean costs, but reversing its four-year slide will require lifting 3rd grade reading.
