Summary

Brimfield Elementary School is a public elementary school located in Kent, Ohio, serving 520 students in grades K-5. The school is part of the Field Local School District, which is ranked 239 out of 828 districts in Ohio and has a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Academically, Brimfield Elementary's performance on Ohio State Tests is generally on par with or slightly below the district and state averages. In 2024-2025, 5th-grade students scored 69% proficient or better in Science, compared to 77% for the district and 63.4% for the state. However, the school's performance in English Language Arts is more mixed, with 3rd-grade students scoring 59.8% proficient or better, compared to 67.3% for the district and 61.3% for the state. Brimfield has also seen a concerning trend of increasing chronic absenteeism, rising from 12.7% in 2023-2024 to 18.3% in 2024-2025.

Nearby schools, such as O.H. Somers Elementary and Woodland Elementary, generally outperform Brimfield on academic measures and have lower chronic absenteeism rates. While the reasons for these performance differences are complex, addressing the root causes of absenteeism and learning from the strategies of higher-performing schools could help Brimfield improve student outcomes and provide a more equitable education for all its students.
