Summary
Sylvania Northview High School is a grades 9–12 public high school in suburban Sylvania, Ohio, near Toledo, serving 1,283 students as part of Sylvania Schools. It ranks 137th of 795 Ohio high schools in 2025–2026 — the 83rd percentile, a 4-star rating — and has stayed between 109th and 142nd statewide over the past three years, with its district ranked 177th of 773. Graduation rates are high and steady at 95.7%, and Northview beats Ohio averages in every reported End-of-Course subject, including American Government (91.7% vs. 71.6%), Biology (83.2% vs. 67.0%), and Geometry (63.1% vs. 43.3%).
Against its same-district peer Sylvania Southview High School, Northview holds a slightly higher overall rank (137th vs. 149th), lower free/reduced lunch (28.6% vs. 32.57%), and nearly identical graduation and absenteeism rates. The two split by subject: Northview is stronger in Government, Geometry, and Algebra I, while Southview leads in History, Biology, and English II. Two nearby schools outperform Northview overall — Ottawa Hills High School (7th statewide, 5 stars, 100% graduation, $14,570 per student) and Toledo Technology Academy of Engineering High School (35th, 5 stars, 293 students), which performs strikingly well despite sitting in the lower-ranked Toledo City district. Northview still far outpaces Whitmer High School, Rogers High School, and Start High School, where graduation can dip to 78.8% and chronic absenteeism reaches 53.0%.
The clearest internal weakness is chronic absenteeism at 23.3%, well above the district's 15.2% and far above Ottawa Hills (13.3%) and Toledo Tech (8.7%). Math is comparatively the weakest area — Geometry at 63.1% is Northview's lowest subject score — and effectiveness rankings for several student groups slipped in 2025–2026, while special education effectiveness improved to the 86th percentile. With mid-range resources ($10,468 per student, a 16.4 student-teacher ratio), Northview remains a strong 4-star suburban school whose main opportunities are attendance and math gaps.
