Schools in Zip Code 44836

ZIP code 44836 covers Green Springs, a small community in Sandusky County, Ohio, and contains exactly one public school: Green Springs Elementary School, which serves grades 3–5 and enrolls 435 students as part of the Clyde-Green Springs Exempted Village district. Because there is only one school, there is no in-ZIP peer to compare against; the meaningful comparison is this school versus Ohio as a whole.

Academically, the school outperforms the state overall, averaging about 74.0% proficiency in 2025–2026 against a state average of roughly 63.8% — a gap of about 10 percentage points. Its strengths are math and science: 5th grade math stands at 82.3% versus 59.1% statewide (+23.2 points), 4th grade math at 81.6% versus 67.3%, and 5th grade science at 78.2% versus 62.7%. Six of seven tested areas beat the state. The exception is 4th grade English Language Arts at 58.2%, which is 3.6 points below the state and fell 6.9 points from the prior year — the one clear soft spot, and it appears subject-specific rather than cohort-wide, since 4th grade math is among the school's strongest results.

Two other signals stand out. Chronic absenteeism is 10.1%, well below the district's 17.3%, which is notable given that 54.94% of students are eligible for free/reduced lunch. Meanwhile, the school's statewide rank percentile slipped from the 73rd (4 stars) to the 66th (3 stars, stabilizing there in 2025–2026) even though absolute proficiency held steady, suggesting other Ohio schools improved faster rather than this school declining. Note that per-student spending ($9,575) dates to 2018–2019 and should not be read as current, and the data covers only grades 3–5, so nothing can be said about K–2 readiness or middle and high school outcomes.
