Westerville City

The Westerville City school district in Ohio comprises 24 schools, including 16 elementary schools, 5 middle schools, and 3 high schools, serving students from pre-K through 12th grade. The district's schools exhibit a mix of high-performing and lower-performing institutions, with several standout schools that consistently rank among the top in the state.

Alcott Elementary School and Emerson Elementary School are two of the district's top-performing elementary schools, both earning 5-star ratings from SchoolDigger and boasting exceptional test scores, with over 90% of students proficient or better in many subject areas. At the middle school level, Genoa Middle School and Blendon Middle School stand out as high-performing institutions, ranking in the top 15% and 20% of Ohio middle schools, respectively.

While the district overall performs well, with a 93.6% four-year graduation rate across its three high schools, there are notable gaps in performance between the top-performing and lower-performing schools, particularly along socioeconomic lines. Schools with higher rates of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch tend to have lower test scores and other metrics, suggesting potential equity concerns that the district may need to address to ensure all students have access to a quality education.
