Summary:

ZIP code 43518 covers Edon, Ohio, a small community served by two public schools — Edon Elementary School (grades PK–6, 296 students) and Edon High School (grades 7–12, 231 students) — both located at 802 W Indiana St and both part of the Edon Northwest Local district, which is ranked 244 of 773 in Ohio (68th percentile, 3 stars). Combined enrollment is 527 students, and there is no middle school or alternative school in the area.

Edon Elementary School is the stronger current test-score performer, especially in upper grades: 4th-grade math at 86.1% versus the state's 67.3%, 5th-grade math and ELA both at 88.9%, 6th-grade math at 87.1%, and 5th-grade science at 75% versus 62.7%. Its clear weak spot is 3rd grade, where math proficiency is 45.2% against a state average of 62.1%, and 3rd-grade ELA sits roughly at the state level. Edon High School is more polarized: American Government (91.9%), American History (90%), and English II (75.6%) are well above state averages, and Algebra I improved sharply from 44.2% to 64.1%, now above the state's 61.6%. Geometry, however, is a real concern at 31.6% versus 43.3% statewide.

Both schools have slipped in state percentile rank over three years: the elementary school from the 76th to the 69th percentile, and the high school more steeply from the 83rd to the 61st percentile, though it has stabilized near 61st–62nd. Chronic absenteeism is higher at the high school (15.4%) than the elementary school (10.6%) and the district (12.7%), even though the high school's graduation rate is a strong 95.2%. Per-student spending is similar — $10,670 and $10,401, though those figures are from 2018–2019 — and student-teacher ratios are nearly identical at 14.5 and 14.3. Free/reduced lunch is reported at 88.31% for the high school; the elementary school's figure is not reported in this data.
