Summary

Millcreek Elementary School is a public elementary school serving grades PK-6 in Corning, Ohio, part of the Southern Local School District. With 365 students, the school has consistently been ranked in the bottom half of Ohio elementary schools, receiving a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger for the past several years.

Millcreek Elementary School faces significant challenges, including high chronic absenteeism rates ranging from 27.4% to 39.0% over the past few years, well above the state average. Academically, the school's proficiency rates on Ohio state tests are generally below the state and district averages across all grade levels and subject areas. For example, in 2024-2025, the school's 3rd grade math proficiency rate was 39.5%, compared to the state average of 64.4%. The school's performance is particularly low for certain student subgroups, such as White students and students with disabilities.

When comparing Millcreek Elementary School to nearby schools, it becomes clear that the school is underperforming relative to its peers. For instance, Union Furnace Elementary School, which is part of the Logan-Hocking Local School District, consistently ranks in the top 5% of Ohio elementary schools and has significantly higher proficiency rates on state tests. Despite Millcreek Elementary School's higher-than-average spending per student, the school's academic outcomes do not reflect this additional investment, suggesting that the district and school leadership need to closely examine the root causes of these issues and develop a comprehensive plan to improve student outcomes.
