Summary

South Range Middle School in Canfield, OH, is a grades 5–8 school with 397 students in South Range Local, a district ranked 55th of 773 in Ohio. In 2025–2026, the school ranked 84th of 1,046 middle schools statewide (92nd percentile, 5 stars), and it has stayed mostly in the top 15% since 2015–2016, including a peak of 22nd in 2020–2021. That long record shows this is not a one-year spike; it is a consistently strong school. About 26.7% of students received free or reduced-price lunch in 2024–2025, available 2018–2019 spending was $9,793 per student, and the 2024–2025 student–teacher ratio was 18.9.

The school is in the elite nearby cluster with South Side Middle School (39th of 1,046) and Canfield Village Middle School (56th), and it clearly outperforms most other area middle schools, including Crestview Middle School, Boardman Glenwood Junior High, Austintown Middle School, Salem Junior High School, and Chaney Middle. Its 2025–2026 test proficiency was above the Ohio average in every reported subject and grade. Standouts include Algebra I End of Course at 95.2% versus 61.6% statewide and 5th grade ELA at 96%. It also beat Canfield Village Middle School in 5th grade ELA (96% vs. 91.9%), 6th grade ELA (85.1% vs. 77.9%), and 8th grade math (76.4% vs. 75.7%).

For parents, other important strengths are student-group results and attendance. In 2025–2026, it ranked 26th of 996 (97th percentile) for low-socioeconomic-status students and 96th of 579 (83rd percentile) for special education students. Chronic absenteeism improved from 14.0% in 2023–2024 to 8.4% in 2025–2026, lower than its district and lower than nearby Canfield Village Middle School (13.3%), South Side Middle School (9.3%), Boardman Glenwood Junior High (21.0%), Austintown Middle School (24.8%), Salem Junior High School (30.4%), and Chaney Middle (72.6%). The school also achieves these results with moderate resources: its 18.9 student–teacher ratio is higher than some neighbors’ but lower than others, suggesting efficient school effectiveness rather than simply out-resourcing peers.
