Summary

Beallsville Elementary School in Beallsville, Ohio is a small, rural PK–8 school in the Switzerland of Ohio Local district, enrolling 136 students — the smallest school among its same-district peers. In 2025–2026 it ranked 818th of 1,560 Ohio elementary schools (48th percentile) with 2 stars, a real improvement from 2016–2017, when it was in the 24th percentile with 1 star. It has the lowest student-teacher ratio of any nearby school at 8.5 (peers range from 11.2 at Skyvue Elementary School to 19.4 at Barnesville Elementary School) and the highest per-student spending among same-district schools at $15,776.

Academically, the school shows a striking split. Early grades are strong: 3rd-grade math was 93.3% and 3rd-grade English language arts 86.7%, both well above district and state levels. But middle grades fall well below: 6th-grade math was 26.3% and 7th-grade math 20.0%, versus district rates of 49.0% and 46.2%; 7th-grade ELA was 30.0%, compared with 69% at Skyvue Elementary School and 65.9% at Woodsfield Elementary School. Poverty is a major context: 86.76% of students qualified for free/reduced lunch in 2024–2025, up sharply from 61.54% in 2022–2023, the highest rate among same-district peers. The low-income subgroup ranked in the 18th percentile in 2024–2025, down from the 33rd percentile in 2022–2023 — a critical equity concern, since overall gains are not yet reaching the most economically vulnerable students.

Attendance is a relative strength. Chronic absenteeism fell from 29.4% in 2021–2022 to 19.2% in 2025–2026, below the district's 30.0% and lower than every same-district peer. Compare that with St Clairsville Elementary School, which ranks at the 80th percentile with 4 stars, 10.7% absenteeism, 37.84% free/reduced lunch, and a 17.7:1 ratio — showing that context and instruction matter alongside resources. Beallsville's early-grade strengths, improving attendance, small classes, and high funding give it a promising base; the clear next step is extending that success into grades 5–8 and to its low-income students.
