In contrast, Horace Mann Elementary School, part of the Dayton City School District, stands out as the lowest-performing school in the area.

Schools with higher percentages of white students and lower rates of free/reduced lunch recipients, such as Smith Elementary and Harman Elementary, tend to have the strongest academic performance. Meanwhile, Horace Mann Elementary, with a more diverse student population and higher poverty levels, struggles with much lower test scores and higher chronic absenteeism.
The Kettering City School District, which includes Beavertown Elementary School and Orchard Park Elementary School, also provides a high-quality education, with both schools earning 5-star ratings and strong academic performance. Overall, the 45419 zip code area is home to a mix of exceptional and underperforming elementary schools, highlighting the need to address the root causes of educational disparities within the region.
