As you review the school rankings data, please be aware that some of the information from certain demographics is missing. The reason for this omission is that the data has been redacted from the source data itself due to low population samples in these specific demographic groups.

Redacting data from low population samples is a necessary step to ensure the reliability and accuracy of the results, as small sample sizes may not be representative of the broader population. Additionally, this measure helps protect the privacy of individuals belonging to these demographic groups.

Open Quote The best Westerville school, topping Westerville Central High School, and Westerville South High School, as well as other schools in its district. Preparation for the OGT's is one of the big things involved in the "Warrior Way," a respect program that is enforced throughout the schools staff and students, helping all students pass the OGT's either accelerated or advanced. Even after OGT's are passed in the 10th grade, the staff at WNHS prepares its students with rigorous AP classes, as well as honors, and PSEO. Even further, ACT and SAT preparation, practice testing, and guides are abundant in the entire school, giving its students the best preparation for college. Funded fairly well, offering a wide ranging media center, two great gymnasiums, an auditorium, quite large cafeteria and "locker street", a wide, long hallway designated to lockers, WNHS is the perfect school for your up and coming high schooler.

About Students eligible for discounted/free lunch:

The National School Lunch Program (NSLP) provides low-cost or free meals to students in U.S. public and nonprofit private schools based on household income. Those with incomes below 130% of the poverty line receive free lunch, while those between 130% and 185% qualify for reduced-price lunch. The percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch serves as a marker for poverty, as it reflects the socioeconomic status of families in a given school or district. A higher FRPL rate typically indicates a higher concentration of low-income families, suggesting that the school or district may face additional challenges in providing adequate resources and support for student success.

About Student-Teacher Ratio

Student/teacher ratio is calculated by dividing the total number of students by the total number of full-time equivalent teachers. Please note that a smaller student/teacher ratio does not necessarily translate to smaller class size. In some instances, schools hire teachers part time, and some teachers are hired for specialized instruction with very small class sizes. These and other factors contribute to the student/teacher ratio. Note: For private schools, Student/teacher ratio may not include Pre-Kindergarten.
