Summary:
Zip code 44814 in Berlin Heights is served by a single middle school: Edison Middle School (formerly Berlin-Milan Middle School), a grades 4–8 building with about 525 students (roughly 105 per grade). It is the only school reporting these grades in Edison Local (formerly Berlin-Milan), so its results are best read against Ohio state averages rather than a local peer school. That comparison is flattering: the school scores above the state on all 13 assessments in the data and holds a 4-star rating, placing in the 77th percentile of Ohio schools in 2025–2026.
Strengths: Algebra I stands out — 100% of end-of-course testers scored proficient in both reported years, versus about 60% statewide. Eighth grade English language arts reached 81%, 22.7 points above the state, and ELA is the school's most consistent subject across grades. Math in grades 4 through 6 is also strong (75.5 to 79.6, all well above state), and science is solid at 78.6% in grade 5 and 76.0% in grade 8. Chronic absenteeism is 11.5%, better than the district's 13.8%.
Watch items: upper-grade math is the weak spot. Seventh grade math fell 23.1 points in a year to 51.9% — only 3.3 points above the state — and eighth grade math dropped 14.2 points. Seven of 13 assessments declined overall, and the school's rank slipped from the 87th to the 77th percentile in one year, with the margin over the state narrowing in every subject. Note that free/reduced lunch is not reported and spending data dates to 2018–2019, so resource and student-need context is unavailable.
