Summary

Napoleon Junior/Senior High School is a public school in Napoleon, Ohio, a small city in northwest Ohio, serving 743 students in grades 7–12 as part of the Napoleon Area City district. In 2025–2026 it ranked 196 of 795 Ohio high schools, placing it in the 75th percentile with a 4-star rating — essentially matching its district (203 of 773, 74th percentile, 4 stars). The school has earned 4 stars every year since 2020–2021, up from 3-star ratings in the mid-2010s, and it is the largest comprehensive secondary school among nearby districts.

Academically, Napoleon scored above the state in every listed tested subject. Biology is a standout at 86.4% proficient versus the state's 67.0%, followed by American Government (83.0 vs. 71.6) and Algebra I (77.0 vs. 61.6). Geometry is above the state (50.7 vs. 43.3) but below many nearby schools and has slipped from 65.9% in 2023–2024 to 50.7% in 2025–2026. Among middle-grade tests, 7th-grade math (68.9 vs. 48.6) and 8th-grade science (71.7 vs. 61.2) are strong, while 8th-grade math (51.3 vs. 52.0) sits just under the state. Compared with neighbors, Napoleon's proficiency is higher than Defiance High School, Holgate High School, and Wauseon High School, close to Patrick Henry High School, and behind Archbold High School, Tinora High School, Pettisville High School, Liberty Center High School, and Ayersville High School.

For families, two areas deserve attention. The graduation rate is 93.8%, respectable but lower than most nearby districts, and chronic absenteeism, while improving steadily to 13.0%, remains above the district's 9.7% and above several neighbors. On the positive side, the school ranks in the 95th percentile statewide for gifted and talented students (5 stars) and has improved sharply for special education students, reaching the 65th percentile from 38th a year earlier. Class sizes are mid-range for the area, with a 14.9 student-teacher ratio, and reported per-student spending of $8,697 (2018–2019) was the lowest in the comparison group — suggesting above-state results achieved with relatively modest reported resources.
