Loudonville's three schools comprise the Loudonville-Perrysville Exempted Village School District. First through third graders attend the R.F. McMullen School. Fourth through sixth graders attend the nearby C.E. Budd School, a building that once served as the village's high school. Students then transition to the [[Loudonville High School (Ohio)|Loudonville High School]] campus, which includes seventh through tenth grades. The high school colors are red and gray and the athletic teams are known as the "Redbirds".

In November 1925, builders completed construction on the new Loudonville High School on east Main Street with a final cost of $170,000. The building was located immediately north of the Union School (built in 1885) which faced west on Wood Street and had until then housed all grades.  This later became the middle school when the campus-style high school was constructed in 1964.

In 1953 a new elementary school was constructed on east Bustle Street at a cost of $613,274, with the Union School being razed. The elementary school was built on the site of the athletic fields, so new athletic fields were constructed on north Mount Vernon Avenue at an initial cost of $82,303. In 1959 the elementary school was named R.F. McMullen after the former Superintendent.

Following consolidation of Loudonville and Perrysville school districts in 1961, a new high school was built adjacent to the athletic complex on Mount Vernon Avenue. The new building cost $1,455,00 and was completed in 1964. The old high school was renamed in honor of C.E. Budd, who had served as Superintendent during its construction, and was converted to a middle school.
