Summary

Lakeview Elementary School in Cortland, Ohio, near the Warren area, is a K–4 school serving 551 students as part of the Lakeview Local district, which ranks 122nd of 773 Ohio districts (84th percentile). The school itself ranked 231st of 1,560 elementary schools statewide in 2025–2026 — the 85th percentile — and has earned 4 or 5 stars in every recent year. On the 2025–2026 Ohio State Tests, proficiency was well above state averages across the board: 85% in 3rd-grade math, 83.9% in 4th-grade math, 80.4% in 3rd-grade ELA, and 80.5% in 4th-grade ELA.

Among nearby schools, Maplewood Elementary School is the closest academic peer, with a slightly higher overall rank and stronger 4th-grade math (90.7% vs. 83.9%), while Lakeview leads in 3rd-grade math and ELA and has lower chronic absenteeism (12.9% vs. 14.8%). Attendance is a genuine strength: chronic absenteeism fell from 22.5% in 2021–2022 to 12.9% in 2025–2026, below the district's 16.0% and far below STEAM Academy of Warren (38.4%) and the Warren City schools Willard Avenue Pk-8 School and Lincoln Pk-8 School, both around 35–36%. Champion Central Elementary School sits in a similarly ranked district but places 445th statewide with higher absenteeism (18.5%).

Two things are worth watching. The statewide percentile has eased from 91st in 2022–2023 to 85th, and several grade-level scores have cooled from earlier highs. The low-socioeconomic-status subgroup also dropped from the 92nd percentile (5 stars) in 2023–2024 to the 64th percentile (3 stars) in 2025–2026. Meanwhile, Lakeview gets strong results with the lowest reported per-student spending in its comparison group ($6,942 in 2018–2019, the only year provided) and a mid-to-high student-to-teacher ratio of 18.3.
