Summary

Austintown Middle School in Youngstown, OH, serves grades 6–8 and enrolls 986 students, making it the largest middle school in its local comparison group. As the only middle school in Austintown Local Schools, its results represent the district's grades 6–8 performance. Recent state data show the school at its highest statewide standing in a decade: 296th of 1,046 middle schools, 72nd percentile, 4 stars for 2025–26. That is a 120-place gain over two years and a step above its own long-run baseline.

Math and English language arts at grades 7 and 8 are the strongest results. Grade 8 math reached 69.1% proficient versus Ohio's 52.0%, and grade 7 math 62.9% versus 48.6%; grade 7 ELA was 78.4% versus 62.7%. Three-year math trends are upward in every grade. The school also stands out for its results with low-income students, who rank at the 90th percentile statewide, and special education students, at the 80th—both above the school's overall 72nd percentile. Chronic absenteeism has fallen 8.3 points over four years to 24.8%, though that remains higher than Canfield Village Middle School (13.3%) and Boardman Center Intermediate School (16.8%).

The clearest opportunity is grade 6, especially math: 59.9% proficient, below Boardman Center Intermediate School at 72.5% and Canfield Village Middle School at 87.9%, and the only core measure where Boardman Center Intermediate School leads. Grade 8 science has slipped to 64.2%, just 3 points above the state and behind Canfield Village Middle School, Niles Middle School, Girard Junior High School, and Boardman Glenwood Junior High. Class sizes are relatively large at 19.3 students per teacher, with per-student spending of $8,577 (2018–19). Nearby results vary widely: Chaney Middle, 1.95 miles away, ranks 1,023rd of 1,046, while Canfield Village Middle School ranks 56th. Against the nearest high-poverty districts—Youngstown City, Niles City, Struthers City, and Liberty Local—Austintown Middle School is clearly the strongest performer on most measures.

Open Quote Theirs to many kids. The classes are filled. To may fights. It's all ghetto. The school years are different every year. The lunches suck. And they don't respect the student body who has been with them since kindergarten. Close Quote
