Summary

Springfield Middle School in Holland, Ohio, serves 761 students in grades 6–8 as part of Springfield Local. It ranks 470th of 1,046 Ohio middle schools (55th percentile, 3 stars), noticeably higher than its district, which ranks 470th of 773 districts (39th percentile, 2 stars). About 89.62% of students qualified for free or reduced-price lunch in 2024–25, up from 80.78% in 2022–23 — the highest rate among nearby comparison schools, where rates run from roughly 12% to 63%. Chronic absenteeism was 25.0%, improved from 37.8% in 2021–22 but still above the district's 23.2%.

Academically, the school is a study in contrasts. Eighth grade results are strong: math 70.0% proficient (state 52.0%), science 71.9% (state 61.2%), and ELA 61.4% (state 58.3%). Algebra I proficiency was 100%, versus 61.6% statewide. Those 8th grade math results beat Rossford Junior High School, Sylvania Arbor Hills Junior High School, Sylvania Timberstone Junior High School, Sylvania Mccord Junior High School, Maumee Middle School, and Jefferson Junior High School, all of which serve fewer low-income students. Earlier grades lag: 6th grade math (46.1%), 6th grade ELA (46.9%), and 7th grade math (43.3%) all fall below state averages and are the lowest among nearby schools serving those grades.

Attendance is the clearest opportunity. Springfield's 25.0% chronic absenteeism is far above top-performing neighbors such as Fallen Timbers Middle School (4.2%), Anthony Wayne Junior High School (6.9%), and Perrysburg Junior High School (9.2%), though better than Jefferson Junior High School's 33.2%. The student-teacher ratio is 16.9, mid-pack nearby. Results vary by student group: special education students rank around the 66th percentile, while low-income and male students rank below the school's overall 55th percentile. Overall, this is a high-poverty school with a strong upper-grade math and science profile and weaker 6th/7th grade math and 6th grade ELA.
