Compared to nearby schools, Stark County High School's performance is generally on par with or slightly below that of schools like R O W V A Junior and Senior High School and Brimfield High School. However, Dunlap High School, located about 18.9 miles away, consistently outperforms Stark County High School across various academic metrics and has a much higher statewide ranking. The school's high percentage of free and reduced-price lunch recipients (38.66% in 2023-2024) and relatively high chronic absenteeism rates (19.1% to 26.3% in recent years) may be contributing factors to its academic challenges.
