Summary:

ZIP code 45882 covers Rockford, Ohio, and is served by three public schools — one elementary, one middle, and one high school — all part of the Parkway Local district, together enrolling about 974 students from pre-kindergarten through grade 12. The district ranks 135th of 773 in Ohio (83rd percentile) with 4 stars, so families here have an above-average system overall, though results differ noticeably by school level.

Parkway Elementary School (PK–4, 389 students) is the strongest all-around performer, with every reported test score above the state average — 4th-grade math reached 94.6% versus a state average of 67.3% — and very low chronic absenteeism of 4.1%. Parkway Middle School (5–8, 279 students) posts exceptional Algebra I results (96.8% in 2025–2026, 100% the year before) and strong grade 7–8 scores, though its Grade 5 science, math, and ELA all fell below state averages in 2025–2026 after being above the previous year, and absenteeism is 10.8%.

Parkway High School (9–12, 306 students) has clear strengths in humanities and graduation: a 97.7% graduation rate, American History at 97.5%, and English II at 83.7%, with the test scores well above state averages. Its main concerns are Algebra I at 60.6%, slightly below the state average and far below the district figure of 78.1%, and chronic absenteeism of 18.2% — nearly double the district's 10.4% and more than four times the elementary rate. About 99.02% of high school students qualify for free or reduced-price lunch.
