Summary:
Leipsic, Ohio is served by a small two-school district, Leipsic Local, made up of Leipsic High School for grades 6–12 with 396 students and Leipsic Elementary School for grades K–5 with 290 students, for a total enrollment of 686. The district as a whole is rated 187th of 773 schools in Ohio, in the 76th percentile with 4 stars. That district rating, however, hides a real split between the two buildings, which are heading in opposite directions.
Leipsic High School is the clear standout. It ranks 110th of 795 schools in 2025–2026, in the 86th percentile with 4 stars, up from 196th of 855 in 2024–2025 and better than its 134th of 864 in 2023–2024. It posted a 100% graduation rate and 100% proficiency in American Government versus 71.6% statewide, 85.4% in Algebra I versus 61.6% statewide, 83% in Biology versus 67% statewide, and 82.1% in both 8th Grade Mathematics and 8th Grade Science, versus 52% and 61.2% statewide. It scored above the state average in every tested subject in both years. Its watch point is chronic absenteeism at 14.9%, above the district's 10.1%.
Leipsic Elementary School has bright spots — 3rd grade math and English Language Arts both reached 88.5%, chronic absenteeism is just 4.1%, and its student-teacher ratio of 12.5 is better than the high school's 15.3. But it ranks 737th of 1,560, only the 53rd percentile with 3 stars, down from 556th (64th percentile) and 488th (69th percentile) in prior years. Its 4th grade math was 55.1% versus 67.3% statewide, 5th grade math 40.5% versus 59.1%, and 4th grade ELA 57.1% versus 61.8%. The weakness sits in grades 4–5, while the middle grades, part of the high school, remain strong.
