Summary

Champion Central Elementary School is a public K–4 school in the Champion Local district serving 453 students in the Warren, Ohio area, where it ranks 445th of 1,560 Ohio elementary schools — the 71st percentile — with 4 stars in 2025–2026. Its district ranks 126th of 773 districts statewide (84th percentile, 4 stars). The school has held 4 stars and the 71st–73rd percentile since 2022–2023, after a dip to 3 stars in 2021–2022, though it remains below its earlier peak of 83rd percentile in 2017–2018.

Academically, Champion Central is above the Ohio average in all four tested areas. Fourth grade math is its standout: 83.5% proficient versus 67.3% statewide, essentially tied with Lakeview Elementary School (83.9%) and near Bristol Elementary School (86.1%) and STEAM Academy of Warren (85.4%), and well above Southington Elementary School (61.8%) and LaBrae Intermediate School (70.5%). Third grade ELA is also near the local top at 80.6%. The clearest relative gap is fourth grade ELA at 69.4% — above Ohio's 61.8% but behind STEAM, Lakeview, and Bristol. Compared with the Warren City Pk–8 schools, which post proficiency mostly in the 30s–50s, Champion is much stronger.

Chronic absenteeism has improved from 25.1% in 2021–2022 to 18.5% in 2025–2026, below the district's 20.6% and far better than the Warren City schools (35–42%) and STEAM (38.4%), though Lakeview (12.9%) and LaBrae (14.1%) are lower. Low-income students rank in the 75th percentile — above the school's overall 71st — a real strength as free/reduced lunch eligibility rose from 34.27% to 46.14%. The student–teacher ratio is 18.8, and per-student spending of $8,674 (2018–2019) is older context. Overall: a stable, above-state 4-star school, strong in math and with low-income students, with fourth grade ELA and attendance as areas to watch.
