Blanchester High School has consistently maintained high four-year graduation rates, ranging from 95.2% to 98.4% over the past few years, which is higher than the state average. However, the school has experienced relatively high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 21.9% to 29.5% in recent years, which is a concern compared to the state average. Academically, the school generally performs better than the state average on Ohio State Tests, with higher proficiency rates in subjects like American Government, American History, and Biology, but struggles in mathematics, with lower proficiency rates in Geometry and Algebra I compared to the state.

Compared to nearby schools, Clermont Northeastern High School and Wilmington High School are on par with or slightly worse than Blanchester High School, while Little Miami High School and Clinton-Massie High School are higher-performing. The nearby Greater Ohio Virtual School significantly underperforms Blanchester High School and the state average on most academic measures. Addressing the chronic absenteeism issue and improving mathematics instruction could be key focus areas for Blanchester High School to enhance its overall performance.
