Academically, Grand Valley Elementary School's proficiency rates on the Ohio State Tests are generally lower than the state averages, with 63.4% of 3rd graders and 53.4% of 4th graders proficient in mathematics, and 64.8% of 3rd graders and 50% of 4th graders proficient in English Language Arts. The school's performance has declined over the past few years, with its statewide ranking dropping from 495 out of 1,588 Ohio elementary schools in 2021-2022 to 978 out of 1,577 in 2023-2024.
