Summary

Brantwood Elementary School is a K–4 school at 4350 Schwinn Dr in Dayton, Ohio, serving 365 students in the Mad River Local district.

Brantwood's results are the more encouraging story than its district's, which sits near the middle of Ohio's rated districts. In 2025–2026 the school ranked 672nd of 1,560 Ohio elementaries — the 57th percentile, or three stars — its best showing in eight years. That follows a slide to a low of the 36th percentile in 2023–2024, making this a two-year rebound of 21 percentile points. Among nearby schools, only Beverly Gardens Elementary School (62nd percentile) ranks higher; Monticello Elementary School (48th), Pathway School of Discovery (46th), Rushmore Elementary School (42nd), Virginia Stevenson Elementary School and Wright Brothers Elementary School (34th), Valley Forge Elementary School (31st), Northridge Elementary School (19th) and Horizon Science Academy Dayton Downtown (9th) all trail it. The gains are broad: grade 3 English language arts and grade 4 math both jumped sharply, with grade 4 math moving from well below the district to matching it and beating the state.

Chronic absenteeism is 21.4%, better than the district's 26.7% in every year on record and down 8.1 percentage points over four years, though Beverly Gardens is lower at 11.6%. The school's measured effectiveness is strongest for students from low-income families, where it ranks at the 80th percentile statewide. Two things worth weighing: Brantwood has the largest class sizes of the ten schools compared, at 19.2 students per teacher, and grade 4 ELA (57.3 against a state average of 61.8) is the one measure where it still trails Ohio.
