Summary:
ZIP code 45406 contains exactly one public school in this data set: Fairview Elementary School, a PK–6 building serving 474 students at 2314 Elsmere Ave in Dayton. No middle schools or high schools are reported for this ZIP, so the available data stops at grade 6 and says nothing about where students go afterward. Fairview belongs to Dayton City schools, a district ranked 725th of 773 in Ohio.
Academically, results are low overall but uneven from grade to grade. Fifth grade is the clear bright spot: 40.7% of fifth graders were proficient in English language arts — essentially level with the district's 41.1% and the highest figure the school posted all year — while fifth grade science reached 32.1%, beating the district's 21.6% by 10.5 points and standing as the only subject where Fairview outperforms its own district. Elsewhere the picture is difficult. Fourth grade math came in at just 4.9% proficient, 20 points below the district and roughly 7% of the state rate, and sixth grade was the weakest cell in the file at 3.6% in math and 7.3% in ELA. Seven of nine subject-and-grade results declined compared with the prior year.
Chronic absenteeism stands at 44.3%, nearly identical to the district's 43.8%, which points to an area-wide attendance issue rather than a school-specific one. The school ranks in the bottom 4% of Ohio schools with a 0-star rating, though its statewide rank has edged up slightly over three years. Two caveats matter for parents: the free/reduced-price lunch field is blank, so student economic need is unknown rather than zero, and the only spending figure available ($11,932 per student) dates to 2018-2019. The student–teacher ratio was 20.6 in 2024-25.
