Summary:
Lockland Junior Senior High School is the only high school in Lockland Local, serving grades 7–12 with 212 students, so there are no within-district school comparisons to make — the useful benchmarks are Ohio state averages and the school's own past results. The district is rated 711 of 773, a percentile of 8 with 0 stars, and the school has earned 1 star in each of the last three years: 672 of 795 (percentile 15) in 2025–26, 682 of 855 (percentile 20) in 2024–25, and 751 of 864 (percentile 13) in 2023–24.
The profile is mixed. American Government is the lone 2025–26 bright spot at 72.1% proficient, just above the state's 71.6%, and the graduation rate is a strong 91.7%, matching the district. Eight of the 11 listed tests improved year over year, including 8th grade English Language Arts (11.5% to 28.6%), 8th grade Science (12.0% to 28.6%), and Algebra I (29.0% to 37.2%). Every other subject remains below the state average. Geometry is the lowest at 8.3% against 43.3% statewide, 7th grade math is 14.3% against 48.6%, and 7th and 8th grade ELA both sit at 28.6%. Across the 11 tests, the school averages about 33.9% proficient versus about 60.2% statewide.
Two issues stand out. Chronic absenteeism is 59.2% at the school compared with 50.1% in Lockland Local — a majority of students are chronically absent — and Geometry moved the wrong way, dropping 11.1 points from 19.4% to 8.3%. Improvement is real but modest: the school's simple average rose about 5.4 points year over year, yet every subject except American Government remains at least 21.8 points below the state average. Context data are limited — free/reduced lunch is not reported, spending is from 2018–19 at $9,134 per student, and the 2024–25 student-teacher ratio is 15.2.
