Youngstown Virtual Academy

Public, Virtual Grades 6-12

784^th

SchoolDigger Rank ?

of 795 Ohio High Schools

Better than 1% of Ohio high schools

Summary

Youngstown Virtual Academy is a virtual public school serving grades 6–12 in Youngstown, Ohio, with about 100 students, and is part of the Youngstown City school district. It ranks near the bottom of Ohio high schools — 784th of 795 (1st percentile, 0 stars) in 2025–2026 — while the district itself ranks 709th of 773 statewide (8th percentile, 0 stars).

Test scores are the biggest concern. Across six End-of-Course subjects, the school's average proficiency is about 15%, compared with roughly 36% for the district and 63% for the state. Math is a persistent weak spot: Geometry was 0% for three straight years before reaching 5.3% in 2025–2026, and Algebra I went from 0% to 14.3%. English II (25%) and American History (26.3%) have improved but remain far below district and state levels. For comparison, Youngstown Rayen Early College High School, in the same district, posted 89.2% in American Government and 76.9% in Biology, and Northeast Ohio Impact Academy also outperformed in every reported subject. The reported student–teacher ratio was 50 in 2024–2025 — higher than Chaney High, East High School, Struthers High School, Memorial High School and Summit Academy Secondary - Youngstown, with only Academy for Urban Scholars Youngstown close at 46.7. Statewide rankings for female, male and low-income students are all near the bottom.

The clearest positives are attendance and graduation. Chronic absenteeism was 6.5% in 2025–2026, well below the district's 56.7% and lower than every nearby school with data, including Chaney High (68.0%) and East High School (76.6%). The graduation rate was 91.7%, slightly above the district's 90.7%. Parents should weigh these carefully, though: the school reported a 0.0% graduation rate in 2024–2025 and 84.5% chronic absenteeism in 2023–2024, so the latest numbers may reflect real improvement, reporting changes, or swings common in a small school. Free/reduced-lunch and per-student spending data were not available, limiting resource comparisons.
