Summary

Springfield Elementary School in New Middletown, OH is a K–4 school serving 347 students in the Springfield Local district, a relatively strong district in the area that has recently seen its elementary school’s rating slip.

In 2025–2026, Springfield Elementary School ranked 497th of 1,560 Ohio schools (68th percentile, 3 stars), down from 83rd percentile/4 stars in 2024–2025 and 2023–2024 and 91st percentile/5 stars in 2022–2023. Proficiency remains above state averages in every tested grade and subject: 3rd Math 77.6% vs 62.1%, 4th Math 86.6% vs 67.3%, 3rd ELA 67.2% vs 63.4%, and 4th ELA 69.9% vs 61.8%. Math is a relative strength, especially 4th grade, where only Joshua Dixon Elementary School (89.1%) was higher nearby and the school was well above Campbell Elementary School (51.4%), Paul C Bunn Elementary School (45.8%), Struthers Elementary School (64.7%), East Palestine Elementary School (73.9%), and Lowellville Elementary School (57.9%). ELA is more mixed: 3rd grade ELA fell from 81.9% in 2024–2025 to 67.2% in 2025–2026, cutting its edge over the state from about 20.6 points to about 3.8 points. Nearby 3rd grade ELA leaders include West Boulevard Elementary School (88.3%), Stadium Drive Elementary School (81.6%), Mckinley Elementary School (77.9%), Robinwood Lane Elementary School (72.7%), and Joshua Dixon Elementary School (70.0%).

Attendance is a clear strength: chronic absenteeism was 9.6% in 2025–2026, below the district’s 10.8% and lower than nearly every nearby school—only Mckinley Elementary School was lower at 7.2%. The low-income subgroup ranked 79th percentile in 2025–2026 (4 stars), after 89th in 2024–2025 and 90th in 2023–2024, stronger than the school’s overall 68th percentile. Resources look modest—19.2 students per teacher in 2024–2025 and $8,009 per-student spending in 2018–2019—yet outcomes generally exceed better-resourced nearby schools such as Campbell Elementary School and Paul C Bunn Elementary School. Springfield Local ranks in the 84th percentile of Ohio districts with 4 stars, while Springfield Elementary School’s 68th percentile is below that district figure. The 2025–2026 dip deserves watching, especially in ELA, but strong attendance, above-state proficiency, and relatively strong low-income results suggest a resilient school working through a weaker year.
