Summary

Leetonia Elementary School is a small K–5 school serving 284 students in Leetonia, Ohio, part of the Leetonia Exempted Village School District in a rural, relatively high-poverty part of Columbiana County. For 2025–2026 it ranked 709th out of 1,560 Ohio elementary schools — the 55th percentile, 3 stars — a middle-of-the-pack position statewide and a sharp drop from the 88th–89th percentile, 4-star results it earned in 2023–2024 and 2024–2025. Its district ranks 311th of 773 Ohio districts (60th percentile, 3 stars).

Results are uneven by grade. Fourth grade was a clear bright spot: math 89.2% and ELA 78.9%, both well above state averages and comparable to Joshua Dixon Elementary School (89.1% math, 87.3% ELA) and Hilltop Elementary School (89% math, 77% ELA), though behind C H Campbell Elementary School and South Range Elementary School. ELA was above the state average in every tested grade. Math and science lagged: 3rd grade math 55.9% (vs. 62.1% state), 5th grade math 50% (vs. 59.1%) and 5th grade science 52.5% (vs. 62.7%) — a notable reversal after 5th grade math reached 96.7% in 2024–2025. Chronic absenteeism improved to 15.8%, well below the district's 27.8%, though higher than South Range, Hilltop and C H Campbell.

Compared with nearby schools, Leetonia lands mid-pack: ahead of Reilly Elementary School and just ahead of McKinley Elementary School, but behind South Range, Canfield's Hilltop and C H Campbell, and Joshua Dixon. Low-income students remain a strength — the low-SES subgroup ranked in the 75th percentile with 4 stars, above the school's overall standing — while special education effectiveness fell from the 96th percentile to the 28th percentile, 1 star. The school has the highest per-student spending ($9,834 in 2018–2019) and second-lowest student-teacher ratio (14.9) among nearby schools, while 74.07% of students qualified for free/reduced lunch in 2023–2024. With only 284 students, small grade-level groups can swing results sharply from year to year.
