Summary

Gibsonburg High School is a public high school serving grades 9-12 in Gibsonburg, Ohio, with a total enrollment of 228 students. The school is part of the Gibsonburg Exempted Village School District, which is ranked 392 out of 828 districts in Ohio and has a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Gibsonburg High School has seen fluctuating academic performance over the past 10 years, with its ranking ranging from 386 to 567 out of Ohio high schools and its rating varying between 1-2 stars and the current 3 stars. This performance is lower than some nearby schools, such as Oak Harbor High School (ranked 90th, 5 stars) and Genoa Area High School (ranked 204th, 4 stars). However, the school maintains a high four-year graduation rate, reaching 100% in recent years, which is on par with or better than the graduation rates of nearby schools.

One area of concern for Gibsonburg High School is its relatively high chronic absenteeism rate, ranging from 10.5% to 16.4% in recent years, which is higher than the rates of some nearby schools. Additionally, the school's test scores on the Ohio State Tests vary across subject areas, with strengths in subjects like American Government and American History, but significant weaknesses in mathematics, particularly in Geometry and Algebra I. The school also faces challenges due to its high percentage of students from low socioeconomic backgrounds, with 62.2% to 76.75% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch in recent years, which is significantly higher than the rates of nearby schools.
