Better than 14% of Ohio high schools

Summary

Warren G Harding High School is a public high school serving grades 9–12 in the Warren City School District in Warren, Ohio, and with 1,221 students it is the largest school in its surrounding comparison group — more than double the size of nearby Lakeview High School, McKinley High School, and Howland High School.

Its overall standing is low. In 2025–2026, Harding ranked 683rd of 795 Ohio high schools, placing in the 14th percentile with a 1-star rating; the district is also rated 1 star and ranks in the 20th percentile. End-of-course proficiency is below the state in every reported subject, with the widest gaps in math: Algebra I at 30.1% versus 61.6% statewide, and Geometry at 25.5% versus 43.3%. Algebra I is also below the district's own 39.2%, so the high school trails its district in math. At the same time, 92.9% of students graduate, and chronic absenteeism is 58.3% — far above the district rate of 43.2% and roughly double the rates at McDonald High School, Champion High School, Lordstown High School, and LaBrae High School.

Compared with its neighbors, Harding sits near the bottom of the local traditional public high schools. Lakeview, McDonald, Champion, Lordstown, and Howland are all rated 4 stars and rank in the 70th–90th percentile. Even LaBrae (2 stars) and McKinley (1 star) post higher proficiency in several subjects, though Harding does outperform the alternative-style Summit Academy Alternative LearnersWarren Middle & Secondary and River Gate High School in many subjects. There are signs of improvement — American History rose from 38.2% to 53.1% and Algebra I from 16.0% to 30.1% since 2023–2024 — but from a very low base. Per-student spending is relatively high at $12,709 (2018–2019 data), suggesting that funding level alone is not the differentiator.

What people are saying

by a student
Friday, May 25, 2012

I graduated near the top of my class in 2010, and have to say that Warren City Schools does very well with what it is given. Most parents in Warren are below the poverty level, which feeds into their children's ideals and motivation levels. While the majority of students do not pass with flying colors, those who do are challenged on a level unlike many other local schools. Harding employs some of the finest teachers in the area, despite the negative outcome of test scores. Since the International Baccalaureate program is offered, the participating students are challenged on a worldwide basis, not just on school board curriculum terms. Please do not continue to look only at the negative aspects of the school and remember that with a decent home life, anyone can succeed. Close Quote
