Summary:
Schools in Oak Hill Union Local, a rural Ohio district, serve about 1,110 students across two buildings covering grades PK–12: Oak Hill Elementary (PK–5, 538 students) and Oak Hill Middle/High School (6–12, 572 students). The district profile shows rank 412 of 773, the 47th percentile, and 2 stars, yet both individual schools earned 3 stars in 2025–2026 — a notable discrepancy that may reflect different ranking methods.
Oak Hill Elementary stands out most in math: 4th-grade math was 90.1% proficient (state 67.3%, a +22.8 point gap) and 5th-grade math 77.3% (state 59.1%, +18.2). Its 4th-grade ELA also beat the state (+7.3). The weak spot is 3rd-grade ELA at 46.9%, well below the state's 63.4%, and 3rd-grade math slipped to 61.7%, slightly under state. Oak Hill Middle/High School posts strong End-of-Course results — English II 81.3% (state 62.7%), American History 83.3%, Biology 78.2%, Algebra I 70.6% — but trails the state in 8th-grade ELA (41.8% vs. 58.3%), 6th-grade math (44.0% vs. 56.2%), Geometry (32.9% vs. 43.3%), 6th-grade ELA, and 8th-grade Science.
The two schools are moving in opposite directions on rankings: the middle/high school climbed from the 34th percentile to the 52nd, while the elementary slipped from 67th to 54th. Attendance is the sharpest contrast: chronic absenteeism is 30.8% at the middle/high school versus 13.7% at the elementary and 22.8% district-wide; the middle/high graduation rate is 89.4%. The middle/high school also has a higher student-teacher ratio (16.3 vs. 13.1) and slightly higher per-student spending from 2018–2019 ($8,640 vs. $8,408). Free/reduced-lunch rates are not reported, so socioeconomic context cannot be assessed. Overall, elementary math is a clear strength with low absenteeism, while the middle/high school shows real academic gains but must address absenteeism and middle-grade gaps.
