Summary

Covington High School is a public high school located in Covington, Ohio, serving 229 students in grades 9-12. The school is part of the Covington Exempted Village District, which is ranked 275 out of 828 districts in Ohio and has a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Covington High School has several strengths, including a consistently high four-year graduation rate of 100% in the 2024-2025 school year, which exceeds the state average. The school's students also perform well on Ohio state tests, with proficiency rates surpassing the state averages in subjects like Biology (75.9%), English II (71.6%), and Geometry (72.2%) in the 2024-2025 school year. Notably, the school's male students and low socioeconomic status students rank in the top 25% and top 20% of Ohio high schools, respectively, in recent years.

While Covington High School performs well overall, there are areas for improvement. The school has seen a gradual decrease in chronic absenteeism, from 17.4% in 2022-2023 to 10.7% in 2024-2025, but this is still an area that needs further attention. Additionally, the school's ranking for gifted and talented students is relatively low, placing in the bottom 5% of Ohio high schools in 2017-2018, suggesting a need to focus more on supporting and challenging its high-achieving students. Compared to nearby schools like Franklin Monroe High School and Milton-Union High School, Covington High School performs well, but it still has room for improvement to reach the level of top-performing schools in the region, such as Versailles High School.
