Summary

Louisville Elementary School is a public K–5 school in Louisville, Ohio, serving 1,001 students as part of the Louisville City district. It is a large elementary for the area, larger than every nearby school in this comparison. In 2025–2026, it ranked 531st of 1,560 Ohio schools—66th percentile with 3 stars—so it is above average but no longer elite, down from 4-star, 75th–89th percentile years and a 5-star, 90th percentile peak in 2015–2016. The district itself ranks 188th of 773 Ohio districts, at the 76th percentile with 4 stars. Louisville Elementary still scores above Ohio in every tested grade and subject shown, but several scores have softened recently.

Compared with nearby schools, Louisville Elementary School is clearly stronger than most Canton City schools and Wright Preparatory Academy in both proficiency and attendance. Its closest academic peers are Middlebranch Elementary School and Portage Collaborative Montessori School, though both have caveats: Portage Montessori posts exceptional scores but is small, specialized, and has a 26.7 student-teacher ratio, while Middlebranch outperforms Louisville in some math and 4th-grade English measures. Chronic absenteeism is a major strength: 10.0% in 2025–2026, well below the district’s 15.0% and below almost every nearby school except North Nimishillen Elementary School at 8.6%. Subgroup results also show notable effectiveness with low-income students, who ranked at the 89th percentile in 2025–2026 and 94th in 2024–2025, and special education students at the 65th percentile.

There are areas to watch. The student-teacher ratio rose to 21.3 in 2024–2025 from 19.7 and 19.3 in the prior two years, and per-student spending was $8,074 in 2018–2019, lower than several nearby schools. Third-grade math is only 0.8 points above the state and fell from 71.5 to 62.9 year over year, while 4th-grade English fell from 75.1 to 67.9. Strengths include 5th-grade math (+19.2 over state), 3rd-grade English (+15.6), and 5th-grade science (+11.8). Because North Nimishillen Elementary School serves PK–2, Louisville Elementary School is effectively the main source of the district’s 3rd–5th grade test results. Overall, it remains a solid, comparatively efficient school with strong attendance and real success with lower-income students, even as rankings and some scores have slipped.
