Summary

Glenwood High School is a small public school serving 147 students in grades 7–12 in New Boston, Ohio, part of the New Boston Local district. In 2025–2026 it ranked 475th of 795 Ohio high schools — the 40th percentile, 2 stars. That is lower-middle statewide, but not its historical norm: Glenwood sat in the bottom quartile in the mid-2010s (13th–28th percentile), climbed to 53rd percentile in 2021–2022 and 60th percentile with 3 stars in 2023–2024, then slipped to 48th and 40th. The early-2020s momentum has stalled.

Two areas stand out as strengths. Glenwood posted a 100.0% graduation rate in both 2024–2025 and 2025–2026, up sharply from 81.0% in 2021–2022, tying Northwest High School, Wheelersburg High School, and Clay High School for the highest among nearby schools. Chronic absenteeism was 16.3%, below the district's 22.3% and lower than every nearby school except Wheelersburg (9.2%) and Green High School (14.5%). Classes are small, with a 10.5-to-1 student-teacher ratio versus 26.8 at Wheelersburg. American History (85.7 vs. 73.2 statewide), 8th-grade Science (76.0 vs. 61.2), English II (67.9 vs. 62.7), and 8th-grade ELA (60.0 vs. 58.3) all beat state averages. Low-income students ranked at the 57th percentile, above the school's overall 40th.

Math is the clearest weakness. Geometry proficiency was 21.4 against a 43.3 state average — lowest among nearby schools, and part of a multi-year pattern. Seventh-grade math (25.8 vs. 48.6) and 7th-grade ELA (48.4 vs. 62.7) also lag. American Government fell to 68.4, below the state's 71.6, after several strong years, so that dip bears watching. Because Glenwood serves grades 7–12, middle-school results count toward its overall profile in a way they do not for nearby 9–12 high schools such as Minford High School, making the middle-school pipeline a key lever for improvement.
