Summary:
Wilmington City is a small Ohio district with just Wilmington City serving 2,098 students across four schools: two elementaries — Roy E Holmes Elementary School (PK–2) and Denver Place Elementary School (2–5) — plus one middle school (6–8) and one high school (9–12), with no alternative schools listed. Districtwide, Wilmington City is ranked 534 out of 773 Ohio districts, in the 31st percentile with a 2-star rating, so the overall profile sits below the state average and only one school reaches the middle of the pack.
That school is Rodger O. Borror Middle School, the standout: the only Wilmington school at the 50th percentile (523/1046, 3 stars), up from 2 stars the prior two years. Its Algebra I proficiency is 93.3%, versus 66.0% for the district and 61.6% for the state, and it also beats the state in 8th grade science and 8th grade math and matches it in 6th grade ELA. It is not uniformly strong, though — it trails the state in 7th grade math, 7th grade ELA, and 8th grade ELA.
Wilmington High School shows mixed results: 514/795, 35th percentile, 2 stars, with American History above the state at 75.5% and Biology essentially level, but other End of Course exams below. Its chronic absenteeism of 26.4% is the district's highest and 7.2 points above the district's 19.2%, alongside a 91.3% graduation rate. Denver Place has the best attendance (12.9%) but the weakest current academics — 1101/1560, 29th percentile, 1 star, with every 2025–26 score below the state, including 3rd grade ELA at 22.5 points under. Roy E Holmes has no current test scores, the highest student/teacher ratio (21.8), the highest 2018–19 spending ($9,087), and 17.6% absenteeism.
