Summary:
ZIP code 44904 contains five schools — two elementary, two middle, and one high school — all part of the Lexington Local district, serving roughly 2,150 students across kindergarten through 12th grade.
At the elementary level, Central Elementary School stands out most: it has the lowest chronic absenteeism in the ZIP at 6.0%, half the district rate of 12.0%, and its 2025–2026 third-grade proficiency was 78.9% in math and 82.3% in English language arts, versus state figures of 62.1% and 63.4%. Eastern Elementary School also beat the state on every reported grade 4–6 test, with math between 81.2% and 85.3% and ELA between 72.1% and 82.0%, plus 9.1% chronic absenteeism. Western Elementary School has no test scores or rank history here, so its academics cannot be judged, though it has the lowest student-teacher ratio (16.2) and the lowest reported free/reduced-lunch share (32.14%).
At the secondary level, Lexington Junior High School posted the single highest result in the data: 100% Algebra I proficiency in 2025–2026, after 98.5% the prior year, alongside strong 8th-grade ELA (84.2%) and math (72.2%). Its 7th-grade math, however, is 46.5%, slightly below the state's 48.6%. Lexington High School graduates 98.9% of students and exceeds the state in American History, Biology, English II, Government, and Geometry; Algebra I (67.5%) is its weak spot and trails the district's 77.0%. Notably, absenteeism climbs at the secondary level — 16.1% at the junior high and 16.5% at the high school, both above the district rate.
