Summary:
ZIP code 43913 has a single elementary school in this data set: Buckeye North Elementary School, located in Brilliant, Ohio, and serving grades PK–5 with 235 students. It is part of the Buckeye Local district. The school reports a student-teacher ratio of 13.8 in 2024–2025 and per-student spending of $8,289 in 2018–2019, a dated figure not adjusted for inflation. A free/reduced lunch percentage is not reported in the record, so it cannot be evaluated. Because there is only one elementary school here, the most useful comparison is between this school, its district, and Ohio statewide averages.
Buckeye North is clearly improving. Its school rank rose from the 52nd percentile in 2023–2024 to the 61st in 2024–2025 and the 78th in 2025–2026, moving from 3 stars to 4 stars. That is well ahead of the district overall, which ranks in the 34th percentile with 2 stars, though the two rankings may cover different pools. In 2025–2026, the school exceeded both district and state proficiency rates in every listed subject and grade. Standouts included 4th Grade Math and 4th Grade ELA at 90.9% proficient, 3rd Grade ELA at 85.3%, and 5th Grade Science at 82.1%. The largest gaps over the state were in 4th Grade ELA (+29.1 points), 4th Grade Math (+23.6 points), and 3rd Grade ELA (+21.9 points).
Fourth grade drove much of the year-over-year gain: 4th Grade ELA climbed from 55.6% to 90.9% and 4th Grade Math from 63.9% to 90.9%. Fifth Grade Math also rose sharply, from 42.1% to 60.7%. Results dipped in 3rd Grade Math and ELA but remained above district and state averages. The lowest 2025–2026 result was 5th Grade Math at 60.7%. Chronic absenteeism is a concern: 36.7% of students were chronically absent, lower than the district's 39.5% but still more than one-third of students, with no state comparison provided.
