Summary

Mathews Elementary School (Intermediate) is a small public elementary school in Vienna, Ohio, serving grades 3–5 with 127 students as part of the Mathews Local district. Its 2025–2026 rank of 540 of 1,560 places it at the 65th percentile with 3 stars — above the typical Ohio elementary school. The school is unusually small, with a student-teacher ratio of 10.1 that is the lowest among the nearby schools compared here, and it exceeded the state average in 6 of 7 tested grade-subject combinations in 2025–2026, with an average proficiency of about 73.3% versus roughly 63.8% statewide.

Fifth grade math is the standout: 82.1% of students were proficient, far above Ohio's 59.1%, and ahead of nearby Roosevelt Elementary School (78%). Third grade English language arts is also a signature strength at 83.3% versus the state's 63.4%, again ahead of Roosevelt's 75.5%. Fifth grade ELA (76.9% vs. 70.4%), fourth grade math (73.1% vs. 67.3%), and fifth grade science (69.2% vs. 62.7%) also beat the state, though Roosevelt Elementary scored higher in fifth grade science (80.5%) and fifth grade ELA (87.8%). The clearest soft spot is third grade math, at 59.6% — slightly below Ohio's 62.1% and behind Niles Intermediate School (63.9%). Fourth grade math has swung widely across recent years, and Niles Intermediate edged ahead there in 2025–2026 (78.8% vs. 73.1%).

Attendance and class size set Mathews Intermediate apart. Its chronic absenteeism of 10.3% in 2025–2026 is the lowest among the nearby schools in this comparison and far below the district's 17.2%. About 52% of students qualify for free or reduced lunch — a moderate-to-high poverty context — yet the school's low-income subgroup has performed strongly, ranking at the 70th percentile (4 stars) in 2025–2026, above the school's overall 65th percentile. Looking back, the school dipped to the 57th percentile in 2023–2024 before rebounding to 66th and 65th, so it sits in a stable, above-average position, though below its high of 87th–89th percentile about a decade ago.
