Summary

Alexander Junior / Senior High School is a combined junior and senior high serving grades 6–12 with 693 students in rural Albany, Ohio, in Athens County, and it is the main tested building for Alexander Local. The school ranks 312th of 795 Ohio schools (61st percentile, 3 stars) — solidly in the middle statewide but at the top of its immediate region — while the district ranks 342nd of 773 (56th percentile, 3 stars). Its graduation rate is 98.1%, and chronic absenteeism is 25.9%.

On the 2025–26 end-of-course exams, Alexander posted the best results of any nearby school in five of six subjects: Algebra I (68.4% proficient vs. the state's 61.6%), Geometry (54.0% vs. 43.3%), Biology (81.4%), English II (74.3%), and American History (83.0%). Athens High School is the only local peer competitive across the board and leads in American Government, while Trimble High School, Federal Hocking High School, Meigs High School, and Nelsonville-York High School generally land well below state averages. Alexander also has the highest graduation rate and the second-lowest absenteeism in the group, and it does this while spending less per student ($9,745 in 2018–19) than most neighbors, with a student–teacher ratio of 13.2.

The weak spots are specific rather than general. English Language Arts in grades 6–8 sits at or below the state level, unlike the school's science and math results. American Government is the only end-of-course subject below the state (70.4% vs. 71.6%), and 8th grade science has fallen 22 points over two years even as Biology improves. Results for students with disabilities have slipped from the 74th percentile to roughly the 32nd–33rd, while students from low-income families rank in the 86th percentile — a notable bright spot. Building attendance also worsened in 2025–26.
