Summary

William Henry Harrison High School is a 9–12 school in Harrison, Ohio, part of the Southwest Local district, with about 1,122 students. In 2025–2026 it ranked 396th of 795 Ohio high schools — the 50th percentile, or 3 stars — placing it in the middle of the state. Southwest Local ranked 295th of 773 (62nd percentile), so the high school sits slightly below its district's overall standing. Historically the school has been middle-of-the-pack: rank percentile was mostly 47–48 from 2020–2021 through 2023–2024, rose to 55 in 2024–2025, and stands at 50 now, with a high point of 61st percentile in 2018–2019.

Academically, the school beat the state average in five of six End-of-Course subjects in 2025–2026. American History (82.2% proficient) and Biology (73.1%) are standout strengths; English II, Geometry and Algebra I also came in above state levels. American Government is the clear weak spot at 61.5%, below the state's 71.6% and below nearby Oak Hills High School, Ross High School and Taylor High School. Among local comprehensive high schools, Ross High School leads (78th percentile, 98.2% graduation), Oak Hills High School sits at 68th percentile, and Taylor High School matches WHH at the 50th percentile but with different subject strengths. Northwest High School, Colerain High School and Mt Healthy High School generally trail WHH.

Non-test indicators are mostly encouraging. The graduation rate is 95.4%, above the district's 92.4%, and chronic absenteeism improved from 33.8% in 2021–2022 to 24.7% — though it remains above the district rate of 18.8% and above Ross High School and Taylor High School. The student-teacher ratio improved to 24.9, and about 36.8% of students were eligible for free or reduced-price lunch in 2024–2025, suggesting an economically mixed community. Some gaps deserve attention: female students (63rd percentile) are served better than male students (47th), and special education students dropped to the 13th percentile from 25th and 50th in prior years. Low-income students rank at the 40th percentile.
