Maryetta

Maryetta has one listed school, Maryetta Public School, serving prekindergarten through grade 8, with 640 students. Because it is the area’s only school, families cannot compare local schools with one another using these figures. In 2025–2026, science was the school’s strongest all-grades subject, with 32% proficient compared with 30% statewide; mathematics was weakest at 14%, versus 25% statewide. The clearest overall takeaway is that science is slightly above the state, while ELA and mathematics trail it by 10 and 11 points.

Grade 8 science is the standout result: 41% of students were proficient, 5 points above the state’s 36%. The strongest contrast is within science itself: grade 5 proficiency was 23%, 12 points below the state, while grade 8 was above it. At the other end, grade 5 ELA was 9% proficient versus 28% statewide, a 19-point gap; grade 3 mathematics had the same 19-point shortfall, at 14% versus 33%. Mathematics was below the state in every tested grade, although the grade 8 gap was narrower at 3 points. SchoolDigger rates the school one star and ranks it 494th of 626 schools, at the 21st percentile.

Results moved in different directions from 2024–2025 to 2025–2026: ELA declined from 19% to 16%, and its gap with the state widened from 7 to 10 points; mathematics fell from 18% to 14%, widening its gap from 8 to 11 points. Science rose from 24% to 32%, moving from 6 points below the state to 2 points above. SchoolDigger’s percentile rose from 8 in 2021–2022 to 23 in 2024–2025, then eased to 21 in 2025–2026. The student–teacher ratio was 13.7:1 in 2024–2025, and 72% of students were free/reduced lunch eligible that year. Chronic absenteeism was close to the state rate in 2025–2026: 15.6% at the school versus 15.9% statewide.
