Summary

Lake Elementary School in Millbury, Ohio, is a PK–5 school serving 763 students in the Lake Local district, a small lakeside community just east of Toledo. In 2025–2026 it ranked 624th of 1,560 Ohio elementary schools — the 60th percentile with 3 stars — noticeably stronger than its district's overall 45th percentile, 2-star ranking. The school peaked at the 78th percentile / 4 stars in 2020–2021 and has since settled into a 58th–61st percentile / 3-star range, making it a solidly above-average elementary, though not at its earlier high.

Academically, Lake Elementary School scores above Ohio in most tested grades and subjects, averaging about 70.1% across seven reported tests versus roughly 63.8% statewide. Third-grade English language arts is the standout at 81.0% — 17.6 points above the state and higher than every nearby comparison school. Third- and fourth-grade math (75.2% and 80.4%) are also well above state averages. Fifth grade sits closer to the state, and fifth-grade science (60.3% vs. the state's 62.7%) slipped below the state after reaching 68.5% the prior year, making it the clearest area to watch. Among neighbors, Genoa Elementary and Coy Elementary School rank higher overall and outscore Lake in several subjects, while Lake clearly outpaces Starr Elementary School, Rossford Elementary School, Northwood Elementary School, and the nearby Toledo City schools.

Chronic absenteeism is 14.1%, below the district's 17.5% and far below the 35.7%–54.3% range at nearby Toledo City schools, though higher than Genoa and Coy (around 10%). Free/reduced lunch has risen sharply, from 35.17% in 2022–2023 to 48.62% in 2024–2025. Notably, Lake has the highest student-teacher ratio (20:1) and lowest per-student spending ($7,913) among nearby non-Toledo schools, yet it outperforms several higher-spending peers. School-effectiveness ratings vary across student groups, and special education results have been volatile — from the 70th percentile / 4 stars in 2024–2025 to 41st percentile / 2 stars in 2025–2026 — a consistency area worth asking about.
