Summary

LaBrae Middle School, at 1001 N Leavitt Rd in Leavittsburg, Ohio, serves 236 students in grades 6–8 as part of the LaBrae Local district, in a community where about 68% of students qualify for free or reduced-price lunch. For 2025-26 the school ranks 510th of 1,046 Ohio middle schools — the 51st percentile with 3 stars — notably stronger than its own district's 2-star, 43rd-percentile standing.

LaBrae has arrested a long slide. It peaked at the 73rd percentile with 4 stars in 2016-17 and 2017-18, then fell to a low of 45th percentile in 2023-24 before recovering to 51st. Two metrics moved together: chronic absenteeism dropped from 32.1% in 2023-24 to 21.2% in 2025-26, and the school's special-education subgroup climbed from the 21st percentile to the 75th. Among 11 nearby middle schools, LaBrae lands mid-pack (8th of 11), behind Champion Middle School (89th percentile, 4.5 miles away), Southington Middle School (75th, 4.8 miles), Howland Middle School and Lakeview Middle School, but well ahead of Newton Falls Junior High School and Windham Junior High School (both 36th).

Academically the picture is mixed. Algebra I proficiency is 100% and 8th-grade science (66.7%) beats the state, though science has slipped about 10 points in four years. The clearest weak spot is 6th-grade English language arts at 41.9%, versus 56.0% statewide — a gap of more than 14 points that has persisted four years, even as the same building's 7th graders beat state averages in both ELA and math. Students from low-income families rank in the 47th percentile, slightly below the school overall. LaBrae spends $9,116 per student with a 13.8:1 student-teacher ratio, yet poorer Lakeview Middle School reaches the 73rd percentile — local results appear to owe more to practice and attendance than to money.
