Summary:
Wellington Exempted Village is home to a single high school, Wellington High School, which serves grades 9–12 and enrolls 228 students. Because it is the only high school in the district, there are no peer schools to compare it against within the area; the meaningful comparisons are the school's own results over time and against district and state averages. The school is part of the Wellington Exempted Village district, which ranks 529 of 773 districts in Ohio, at the 32nd percentile with 2 stars.
Academically, the picture is mixed. The strongest result is English II, where proficiency rose from 52.7% in 2024–2025 to 74.6% in 2025–2026 — a 21.9-point jump that moved the school from 7.7 points below the state to 11.9 points above it. American Government (74.7%) and American History (75.0%) also remain above state averages, though American Government slipped 11.6 points year over year. Mathematics is the clear weak spot: Algebra I proficiency is just 38.0%, which is 23.6 points below the state and 10.5 points below the district, and Geometry is slightly below state at 41.7%. Graduation is a major strength at 97.5%, but chronic absenteeism is 24.2% at the school versus 19.9% district-wide, meaning roughly one in four students is chronically absent.
The school's overall standing has declined. It fell from 327 of 864 schools (62nd percentile, 3 stars) in 2023–2024 to 489 of 795 (38th percentile, 2 stars) in 2025–2026. Its unweighted average proficiency was essentially flat — 61.5% in 2024–2025 and 61.0% in 2025–2026 — while the state average rose, so the school is drifting further behind overall. With only 228 students, individual test cohorts are small, and large swings such as English II's gain and Algebra I's 17.4-point drop may reflect cohort changes as much as instruction. Still, the consistent math weakness and rising absenteeism are the most important concerns for families to watch.
