Summary:
Leipsic Local is a small Ohio district with just two schools — Leipsic Elementary School serving grades K–5 and Leipsic High School serving grades 6–12 — together enrolling 686 students, with no separate middle school, so grades 6–8 are housed in the high school building. The district is rated 4 stars and ranks 187th of 773 districts, or the 76th percentile.
Leipsic High School is the clear standout. It ranks 110th of 795 high schools statewide (86th percentile, 4 stars), up from 196th the prior year, and it outperforms the state average on all 13 listed tests in both 2025–26 and 2024–25. Highlights include American Government at 100% versus the state's 71.6%, 8th grade math at 82.1% versus 52%, and Algebra I at 85.4% versus 61.6%. Its graduation rate is 100%. The main concern is chronic absenteeism at 14.9%, well above the district's 10.1%.
Leipsic Elementary School is more mixed and trending down, falling from the 69th percentile in 2023–24 to the 53rd percentile in 2025–26 (3 stars). Third grade is excellent, with both math and ELA at 88.5% against state averages near 62–63%, but 4th and 5th grade math lag well behind — 5th grade math is 40.5% versus the state's 59.1%. Absenteeism is very low at 4.1%, and free/reduced lunch rates and per-pupil spending are similar across both schools. The district's overall strength rests largely on its high-performing high school.
