Summary

Patrick Henry High School in Hamler, Ohio, is a public high school serving 272 students in grades 9–12 as part of the Patrick Henry Local district in a small, rural community. The school has been a solid 4-star performer, ranking #210 of 795 Ohio high schools in 2025–2026 (74th percentile), and its district ranks #129 of 773 districts (83rd percentile). While its rank percentile has slipped from 86th in 2021–2022 to the 71st–75th range in recent years, graduation rates remain strong and stable at 96.3% in 2025–2026, 95.4% in 2024–2025, and 96.0%–96.6% in the three prior years.

Academically, Patrick Henry exceeded Ohio state proficiency rates in every reported End-of-Course subject in 2025–2026, often by double digits: American Government 82.4 vs. 71.6, American History 88.9 vs. 73.2, Biology 82.7 vs. 67.0, English II 71.4 vs. 62.7, Geometry 58.1 vs. 43.3, and Algebra I 68.6 vs. 61.6. Compared with nearby schools, social studies and science are relative strengths, but Algebra I and English II are leverage points—Algebra I is below the district score of 76.5 and below most local peers (e.g., Continental Local High School at 93.5 and Miller City High School at 95.3), while English II trails several nearby schools. Geometry improved notably from 40.3 to 58.1 in one year, though small cohorts can make such shifts volatile.

A major context is economic need: 98.9% of students were eligible for free/reduced lunch in 2024–2025—the highest among nearby schools—yet the school still outperforms the state. Chronic absenteeism has improved dramatically from 32.2% in 2021–2022 to 11.3% in 2025–2026, though it remains above the district’s 9.4% and higher than some local peers like Miller City High School (0.7%) and Continental Local High School (6.0%). The school is especially effective for low-income students (76th percentile) and special education students (77th percentile, up from 39th in 2023–2024). Nearby schools like Leipsic High School and Liberty Center High School currently rank higher overall, but Patrick Henry High School’s combination of universal economic need and above-state outcomes is a notable strength.
