About the Ohio's State Test Grade 4 Math Test
Grade 4 is the high-water mark for Ohio math: at 68% proficient in spring 2026, it had the highest rate of any grade 3-8 math test. It still means roughly a third of fourth graders were below Proficient, and the content is a real step up from grade 3.
ODEW reports grade 4 math in four strands: Multiplication & Division, Fractions, Geometry, and Modeling & Reasoning. The year's biggest jumps are multi-digit multiplication and long division, and a much deeper treatment of fractions — equivalent fractions, comparing fractions, and adding and subtracting fractions with like denominators.
Ohio's State Tests are fixed-form tests given online through Cambium's Ohio portal, with paper as an accommodation (ODEW). Grade 4 math has two parts of up to 75 minutes each, and NO calculator is allowed unless a student qualifies for one as an accommodation.
Proficient + Accomplished + Advanced (scale 700+). Basic (Level 2) and Limited (Level 1) are below Proficient. Highest of the grade 3-8 math tests in 2026. In spring 2025 the grade 4 figure was 70%.
