The release of Ohio's 2025-26 education data provides an opportunity to take a closer look at the information that helps tell the story of our students, schools and community.

Jonathan Alder Local Schools is sharing a recent Marysville Matters analysis that examines data from school districts across Union County, including student outcomes and per-student spending. The article provides additional local context and another perspective for community members interested in understanding the latest education data.

Jonathan Alder administrators are currently taking a closer look at our district's 2025-26 results in the coming weeks. That review will provide additional information about student achievement, growth, graduation, early literacy, future readiness and other measures included in the state's data.

We believe data is an important part of understanding the work happening across our schools. It helps us recognize areas of progress, identify opportunities for continued growth and keep our focus on providing meaningful opportunities for every Pioneer.
