About Fort Loramie Elementary School
Fort Loramie Elementary School serves 390 students in grades K–6 in Fort Loramie, Ohio, earning a composite score of 9.3/10 — a rating MySchoolScout labels Exceptional. The school ranks #21 of 3,440 public schools statewide, placing it in the top 1% of all Ohio public schools. That's not a narrow margin: Fort Loramie outperforms 99% of Ohio schools across the metrics that matter most to families.
Academic performance anchors the rating. The school's academic subscore reaches 9.9/10 — near-perfect — and its growth score of 9.4/10 signals that students are advancing faster than expected, not just arriving ahead. Among Ohio's 1,742 elementary schools, Fort Loramie ranks 10th, a position that reflects consistent, system-wide execution rather than a single strong cohort.
The student-teacher ratio of 13.9:1 supports that execution. At 390 students across seven grade levels, the school operates at a scale where individual attention is practical and relationships between teachers and families run deep. For parents weighing where to enroll a young child, the combination of an elite statewide rank and a close-knit classroom environment is rarely available in the same building.
Fort Loramie Elementary delivers both.
