Summary

Dixie Elementary School is a public elementary school located in New Lebanon, Ohio, serving grades PK-4 with a total enrollment of 468 students. The school is part of the New Lebanon Local School District, which is ranked 480 out of 828 districts in Ohio and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Dixie Elementary School consistently performs above the state average in Ohio State Tests for both Mathematics and English Language Arts across grades 3 and 4. For example, in the 2024-2025 school year, 75.6% of 3rd graders and 77.8% of 4th graders were proficient or better in Mathematics, compared to the state average of 64.4% and 69.1%, respectively. The school also ranks highly in the state for its performance with special education and low-socioeconomic status (SES) students, outperforming nearby schools like Belle Haven Elementary and Trotwood Preparatory & Fitness Academy.

While Dixie Elementary School has seen a decrease in chronic absenteeism over the past few years, the rate is still relatively high at 19.7% in 2024-2025, compared to the state's target of 15%. Additionally, the school's spending per student ($8,743 in 2018-2019) is lower than some of the nearby schools, which could impact its ability to provide additional support and services to students. Overall, Dixie Elementary School appears to be a strong-performing school, particularly in academic achievement and support for special populations, but there are areas for improvement, such as addressing chronic absenteeism and potentially increasing resources.
