Better than 23% of Ohio high schools

Summary

The Bridgeport School District - High School is a small public high school in Bridgeport, Ohio, serving roughly 198 students in grades 9–12 as part of Bridgeport Exempted Village, a district with very high poverty — 98.2% of students qualified for free or reduced-price lunch in 2023–2024. The school ranked 614 of 795 Ohio high schools in 2025–2026 (23rd percentile, 1 star), down from 498 of 836 in 2021–2022. Among nearby comprehensive high schools, it is the second-lowest ranked, ahead of only Buckeye Local High School.

Academics are the biggest concern, especially math. In 2025–2026, 23.2% of students were proficient in Geometry (state: 43.3%) and 36.5% in Algebra I (state: 61.6%); Geometry has stayed below 30% for four straight years. American Government was another outlier at 52.8% proficient versus 71.6% statewide — lower than every nearby comprehensive high school. American History (73.8%) was close to the state average (73.2%), while Biology and English II fell somewhat below state but above several neighbors. Graduation is a bright spot at 95.5%, though chronic absenteeism is high at 36.0%, well above the district's 27.1%.

The school trails most nearby high schools overall, including Shadyside High School (78th percentile), St Clairsville High School (61st) and Bellaire High School (59th), with results mixed against Martins Ferry High School. School-effectiveness rankings for subgroups, particularly students with disabilities (611 of 617 in 2024–2025) and low-income students, are low. Resources don't appear to be the main constraint: an 11:1 student-teacher ratio and $10,215 per-student spending (2018–2019) compare well with several nearby districts. With only 198 students, single-year swings can be volatile, so families should watch multi-year patterns.
