Summary

Maplewood Elementary School is a K–6 school in Cortland, Ohio, serving 356 students as part of the Maplewood Local district, which ranks 48th of 773 Ohio districts (94th percentile, 5 stars). The school itself ranked 219th of 1,560 Ohio elementary schools in 2025–2026, placing it in the 86th percentile with 4 stars — strong, though slightly below its peak years, when it reached 5 stars and the 95th–97th percentile in 2015–2016, 2017–2018, 2018–2019, and 2020–2021.

Academically, math and grade 5 are the standouts. In 2025–2026, grade 5 students hit 98% proficiency in both math and ELA, plus 91.8% in science — far above state averages of 59.1%, 70.4%, and 62.7%. Grade 4 math was 90.7% (state: 67.3%). Grade 6 ELA is the main weak spot: 58.7%, only slightly above the state's 56% and well below Maplewood's own recent results of 77.8% in 2024–2025, 64.4% in 2023–2024, and 68.6% in 2022–2023. Grade 3 ELA (70.2%) also trails several nearby schools. Students from low-income families are a bright spot: that group ranked in the 96th percentile in 2025–2026, 98th in 2024–2025, and 94th in 2023–2024.

Among nearby schools, Maplewood's 86th percentile rank leads Lakeview Elementary School (85th) and Bristol Elementary School (82nd), and its district outranks Lakeview Local and Champion Local, both at the 84th percentile. Chronic absenteeism is 14.8% — better than the district's 15.2% and lower than Champion Central Elementary School (18.5%), Howland Glen Elementary School (18.4%), and Bristol (21.3%), though higher than Lakeview (12.9%) and Mathews Elementary School (Intermediate) (10.3%). The student–teacher ratio is 14.8, lower than Lakeview (18.3) and Champion (18.8), and spending was $11,005 per student in 2018–2019. Compared with Bristol, Maplewood is stronger in most grades, but Bristol's grade 6 ELA proficiency of 82.8% is a striking exception despite a higher free/reduced-lunch rate (62.5%) and much higher absenteeism (21.3%) — a useful benchmark for grade 6 literacy.
