of 795 Ohio High Schools

Better than 91% of Ohio high schools

Summary

Hicksville High School is a small public high school in the rural northwest Ohio community of Hicksville, serving grades 9–12 with 211 students as part of the Hicksville Exempted Village School District. Both rank near the top of the state: the district is 36th of 773 Ohio districts (95th percentile, 5 stars), and the school is 74th of 795 Ohio high schools in 2025–2026 (91st percentile, 5 stars). It was 7th in Ohio in 2020–2021 and stayed in the top 30 through 2023–2024, slipping to 67th and then 74th — still 5-star and top-10%. The graduation rate was 96.4% in 2025–2026, up from 91.3% in 2023–2024.

Proficiency is above the Ohio average in every subject, with math and science the standout strengths: Geometry 76.7% versus 43.3% statewide, Algebra I 90.2% versus 61.6%, and Biology 89.1% versus 67.0% — the highest among nearby schools, ahead of Fairview High School and Edgerton High School in math and science. English II is 74.5% versus 62.7% statewide, but Fairview (90.8%) and Edgerton (90.4%) score higher, making English the relatively softer area. The school is also unusually effective with specific groups: low-income students ranked 9th of 761 Ohio schools (99th percentile, 5 stars) in 2025–2026, special education students ranked 11th of 617 in 2024–2025, and students with disabilities have ranked as high as 5th statewide. Class sizes are small, with a 12.3 student-teacher ratio in 2024–2025 — second lowest nearby, behind only Antwerp Local High School.

The main concern is attendance: chronic absenteeism was 16.6% in 2025–2026, above the district's 9.9% and above most nearby schools, ranging from 15.7% to 21.2% over five years. Per-student spending was $10,195 in 2018–2019, modest compared with other nearby districts, yet results outpace several schools that spend more. Overall, Hicksville is a strong, high-performing choice with standout math and science results and excellent support for low-income and special education students; the areas to watch are absenteeism and the recent softening in English II and overall rank.
