Summary

Fairland West Elementary School in Proctorville, Ohio, serves 306 students in grades 3–5 as part of the Fairland Local district. It ranks 455th of 1,560 Ohio elementary schools in 2025–2026 — the 71st percentile with 4 stars — and its recent history shows a rebound from a dip in 2023–2024, when it placed 593rd of 1,577 (62nd percentile, 3 stars). Earlier years were sometimes stronger still, including 146th of 1,651 (91st percentile, 5 stars) in 2016–2017.

In 2025–2026 the school scored above the Ohio state average in every tested subject and grade. English Language Arts is the standout: 83.1% of third graders and 80.0% of fifth graders were proficient, versus state averages of 63.4% and 70.4%. Math is also strong in grades 3 and 4 (77.1% and 81.6%), while fifth-grade science is the relative weak spot at 64.4%, just 1.7 points above the state and below Dawson-Bryant Elementary School (83.1%), Symmes Valley Elementary School (75.4%) and Burlington Elementary School (69.2%). Chesapeake Elementary School is the highest-performing nearby school and beats Fairland West in grades 3–4, though it does not serve grade 5.

Attendance is a major strength: 8.9% of students were chronically absent in 2025–2026, lower than every nearby school listed and below the district's 15.2%. Classes are small — a student-teacher ratio of 9.8 in 2024–2025, compared with 17.1 at Chesapeake, 18.3 at Dawson-Bryant and 20.2 at Burlington — and per-pupil spending of $7,234 (2018–2019) is lower than most neighbors. The school also ranks in the top 10% statewide (91st percentile, 5 stars) for its effectiveness with low-income students. Parents may want to watch grade 5 science, a decline in math and science from a very strong 2024–2025, and the fact that South Point Elementary School and Burlington outperform in a few grade 5 subjects.
