Summary:
The 44841 zip code area has only one middle school, Lakota Middle School, which serves grades 5-8.

Lakota Middle School has a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger and ranks 478 out of 1,046 Ohio middle schools for the 2023-2024 school year.
Lakota Middle School's academic performance is mixed, with strong results in science and mathematics, particularly in 5th and 8th grades, where students outperform the state averages. The school also stands out for its exceptional performance in Algebra I, with 100% of students scoring proficient or better, significantly higher than the district (59.8%) and state (55.9%) averages. However, the school's English Language Arts performance is more uneven, with some grade levels outperforming the state average and others underperforming.
While Lakota Middle School's overall performance is relatively strong, the school's high chronic absenteeism rate of 20.6% is a concern that may impact academic achievement. Additionally, the school's predominantly White student population and high percentage of economically disadvantaged students suggest the need for targeted resources and support to promote diversity, equity, and inclusion, as well as to address potential barriers to student success.
