Summary

Grand Valley High School is a small public high school serving grades 9–12 in Orwell, Ohio, with 273 students, part of Grand Valley Local in a rural area with a relatively high-poverty student population. In 2025–2026 it ranked 446th of 795 Ohio high schools — the 44th percentile, or 2 stars — consistent with its recent history of sitting around the 38th–44th percentile, aside from a 3-star, 51st-percentile year in 2024–2025. Locally it sits in the lower-middle: Maplewood High School (98th percentile, 5 stars), Bloomfield High School (78th), Cardinal Junior/Senior High School (77th), Jefferson Area Senior High School (72nd) and Berkshire High School (67th) all rank higher, while Bristol High School (49th) and Pymatuning Valley High School (35th) are close behind or below.

Graduation is a clear strength: 96.9% of students graduate, up from 93.8% the year before, placing the school near the top of the local group behind Bloomfield (100.0%), Berkshire (98.2%), Maplewood (98.1%) and Jefferson Area (97.9%). Chronic absenteeism is improving — 31.9%, down from 38.5% and 40.3% in earlier years — but it remains above the district's 24.3% and well above Maplewood (16.0%), Berkshire (18.9%) and Cardinal (22.3%). Attendance is likely holding achievement back.

Test results are uneven. Algebra I is a standout at 76.7% proficiency versus Ohio's 61.6%, and the school also exceeds the state in American Government (75.0%), Biology (70.9%) and English II (63.9%). Geometry is the clearest weakness at 35.1%, below Ohio's 43.3% and the lowest locally, and American History (71.4%) also trails the state. Subgroup results show large internal gaps: male students rank in the 73rd percentile while female students rank in the 24th, and Gifted and Talented (21st percentile) and low-SES students (32nd) rank low. Roughly 57.5% of students were eligible for free or reduced lunch, and per-student spending was $9,321 in 2018–2019, lower than most nearby districts.
