Pomeroy Elementary School has the stronger overall academic profile. In 2025–2026, 58.41% of students were proficient in English language arts, 63.72% in math, and 59.38% in science—above both district and state averages in every subject. Math is the school’s standout strength, exceeding the state rate by more than 20 percentage points. The school has 201 students, a 4-star rating, and a student-teacher ratio of 18.6. Its results dipped somewhat from the prior year, but it remains well above the statewide midpoint. Several grade-level results are unavailable because they were suppressed, so those figures should not be viewed as zero or as evidence of weak performance.

Pomeroy Junior Senior High School serves 142 students and has a lower student-teacher ratio of 11.5, but its current achievement is below the district average in all three subjects. It nevertheless exceeds state averages in ELA, math, and science, and its statewide ranking improved substantially over three years, from the 30th to the 58th percentile. High school results also improved from the previous year, especially science. Eighth grade is a notable strength, while seventh-grade ELA and 11th-grade science need the most attention. The available graduation rate is 83% for 2023–2024. Overall, families will find a strong elementary program and an improving but more uneven secondary program, particularly in math.
