Summary:
ZIP code 45714 covers Belpre in Washington County, Ohio, and is home to three schools — Belpre Elementary School (K–6, 484 students), Belpre High School (7–12, 387 students), and Belpre Blue Sky Academy (an alternative setting for grades 1–12 with just 18 students), all part of the Belpre City district, which is ranked 398 of 773 statewide.
Belpre High School is the standout. It climbed from the 35th to the 53rd percentile and from 2 to 3 stars, graduating 89.0% of students and beating the state in 7 of 11 tested subjects — most strongly in English II (75.8% vs. 62.7%) and Algebra I (73.1% vs. 61.6%). Two cautions for parents: Geometry (41.4%) lags well behind Algebra I in the same building, and chronic absenteeism is 31.6%, worse than the district's 25.2% and 10.5 points worse than the elementary school. Its 8th grade ELA and science scores are also below state.
Belpre Elementary School is holding steady rather than improving — 48th percentile, 2 stars. There are real bright spots: 3rd grade ELA jumped to 80.3% (vs. 63.4% state) and 6th grade math sits at 69.0% (vs. 56.2%). But 5th grade math is 13.6 points below state, and 5th grade science fell from 85.5% to 62.1%. Absenteeism is a better-than-district 21.1%. Belpre Blue Sky Academy reports 0.0% chronic absenteeism, but with only 18 students that figure is very coarse, and the school has no test-score record; its lunch and staffing data are suppressed by the state, so treat them as unknown. Spending figures for the other two schools date to 2018–19 and are not current.
