Summary

Bristol Elementary School is a K–6 school serving 232 students in the rural Bristolville area of Trumbull County in northeast Ohio, and it is part of the Bristol Local district. In 2025–2026 it ranked 274th of 1,560 Ohio elementary schools — the 82nd percentile, or 4 stars — and it has earned 4 stars every year since 2017–2018, a step up from 3 stars and the 60th percentile in 2016–2017. That improvement of roughly 22 percentile points has held for eight years.

Bristol's test scores beat Ohio's in every tested subject and grade. It averages about 80% proficiency in math (state ~61%) and about 78% in ELA (state ~63%), with its strongest results in 5th-grade science (84.6%) and 5th- and 6th-grade ELA. Its smallest margin over the state is 3rd-grade ELA (68.0 vs. 63.4). Among nearby schools, Maplewood Elementary School posts higher 5th-grade scores and a clearly higher math average, but Bristol is far more consistent across grade levels. Bristol also beats Southington Elementary School in five of seven shared tests and LaBrae Intermediate School in six of seven, and it outperforms the much larger Lincoln Pk-8 School and McGuffey Pk-8 School by wide margins.

The standout is Bristol's record with low-income students: it ranked in the top 2–4% of Ohio schools for economically disadvantaged students for three straight years (96th–98th percentile, 5 stars), higher than the school's own overall percentile. Classes are small (13.6:1, second-lowest in its comparison group) on mid-pack spending of $9,559 per student (2018–2019). The clearest remaining gap is attendance: chronic absenteeism fell from 34.8% in 2021–22 to 17.0% in 2024–25, but rose to 21.3% in 2025–26, trailing Lakeview Elementary School (12.9%), LaBrae Intermediate, Maplewood and Southington.
