Summary:
Zip code 45150 in Milford, Ohio contains 9 schools serving 5,778 students across grades PK–12, split between five elementary, one middle and three high schools, with eight of the nine belonging to Milford Exempted Village and one — Live Oaks Cdc — operated by Great Oaks Career Campuses.
This is a strong suburban portfolio: seven of the eight ranked schools place in the top 20% of Ohio, and the district ranks in the 80th percentile. Meadowview Elementary School is the consistent flagship, holding three straight 5-star ratings and roughly the top 8% of Ohio elementaries, with 8.4% chronic absenteeism — less than half the district's 19.9%. Milford Middle School posted the biggest one-year jump, rising to the 86th percentile. Mulberry Elementary School stands out against demographics, posting the highest poverty rate of any elementary (37.22% free/reduced lunch) and the lowest per-student spending ($9,905) yet still outperforming the district in 4th-grade math and 5th-grade ELA. Boyd E Smith Elementary School remains strong but has slipped noticeably, and Pattison Elementary School leads in science and 3rd-grade ELA while trailing in math at every grade. Charles L Seipelt Elementary School is climbing.
The vulnerabilities sit at the upper grades. Chronic absenteeism rises from 7.0–15.9% in elementaries to 17.2% at the middle school and 33.8% at Milford Senior High School, which has drifted from the 82nd to the 80th percentile and shows its narrowest edge over the state in Algebra I. Milford Academy is the clear outlier: 1 star, 20th percentile, 75.9% chronic absenteeism, yet a 92.3% graduation rate. Live Oaks Cdc reports no test scores, absenteeism or graduation data, leaving 11% of the zip's students without comparable accountability information.
