Summary:
Zip code 45503 has one public middle school, Roosevelt Middle School, serving grades 7–8 in Springfield, Ohio as part of Springfield City School District. It enrolls 413 students, with a student-teacher ratio of 13.3 in 2024–25. Because it is the only middle school in the zip code, there are no other local middle schools to compare it with directly.
Academically, results are mixed. Algebra I End-of-Course proficiency is a standout: 100% in 2025–26 and 87.5% in 2024–25, far above the district and state, though this test is usually taken by a smaller advanced cohort. Eighth-grade English Language Arts improved from 29.3% to 38.3%, and 7th-grade math rose from 19.1% to 25.0%. However, 8th-grade math remains very low at 11.6% in 2025–26, and 8th-grade science was 24.6%. In 2025–26, the school trailed the state by 20 to 40 percentage points in Science 8, Math 7, Math 8, ELA 7, and ELA 8.
Chronic absenteeism is high at 35.2%, slightly above the district’s 34.7%. The school is ranked 854 out of 1,046 schools in 2025–26, at the 18th percentile with 1 star; the district is at the 9th percentile with 0 stars. Per-student spending was $7,302 in 2018–19, which is historical, and free/reduced lunch data is blank/unknown, not zero. Overall, the school shows progress in ELA and a striking Algebra I result, but 8th-grade math and science, plus absenteeism, remain key concerns for families to watch.
