Summary

Fairport Harding High School is a small public school in the lakeside village of Fairport Harbor, Ohio, serving 291 students in grades 6–12 as part of the Fairport Harbor Exempted Village district. Its 2025–26 state rank is 616 of 795 (23rd percentile, 1 star), down from 45th percentile in 2024–25—the sharpest one-year drop among its nearby comparison schools.

The school has real strengths. Its 96.4% graduation rate is fourth-best among nine nearby schools, ahead of Riverside Junior/Senior High School and North High School, and up from 90.0% four years earlier. It also has the lowest student-to-teacher ratio in the group (17.1 students per teacher) while spending $9,008 per student (2018–19), the third-lowest total. Students beat the state average in American Government (77.8% vs. 71.6%) and 7th-grade ELA (65.7% vs. 62.7%).

Yet only 2 of 13 tested measures beat the state in 2025–26, with the widest gaps in 8th-grade Science (23.1% vs. 61.2%), Geometry (23.4% vs. 43.3%), and 7th-grade Math (25.7% vs. 48.6%). Chronic absenteeism is the school’s biggest challenge: 41.9%, the highest among peers and well above the district’s 31.9%. Because the school is small, year-to-year swings can be large. The most actionable priorities are attendance and math/science support, while graduation and civics remain bright spots. For context, top-ranked neighbors such as Kirtland High School and Perry High School serve more affluent populations, while Madison High School outperforms Fairport Harding High School on most tests while spending less per student.
