Summary:
ZIP code 44262 covers Munroe Falls, Ohio, and contains two public schools — Kimpton Middle School (grades 7–8, 773 students) and Riverview Elementary School (grades K–4, 273 students) — both in the Stow-Munroe Falls City School District. There is no high school and no grades 5–6 building in this ZIP, so families leave the area for those years. Both schools earn 4 stars and rank in the 73rd percentile statewide, and no test score in the data is suppressed or given as a range, so comparisons are clean.
Kimpton Middle School's standout is math: its Algebra I End-of-Course proficiency of 97.1% is far above its district (70.9%) and the state (61.6%). Its 8th grade math score of 55.0% is only 3.0 points above the state while every other subject runs 12–17 points above — most likely because Kimpton's strongest 8th grade math students sit for Algebra I instead. Riverview Elementary's standout is attendance: chronic absenteeism of 8.4% is less than half the district's 16.5% and about 40% of Kimpton's 20.4%. Riverview's 4th grade math (84.8%) is 17.5 points above the state, but its English language arts trails its own district in all four comparisons — the only such pattern here.
Attendance splits sharply by grade level: Riverview's 8.4% versus Kimpton's 20.4%, a 2.4× gap within one ZIP, and Kimpton is the only school here worse than its district. Riverview spends more per student ($10,078 in 2018‑19, versus Kimpton's $6,894) and has smaller classes (16.5:1 versus 21.5:1), though the spending figure is historical context only. Following the same cohort, Riverview's 2024‑25 third graders improved to 84.8% in math and 71.7% in ELA as fourth graders. Overall, all 14 school-versus-state comparisons are favorable, with margins from +3.0 to +35.5 points.
