Summary

Rock Hill Senior High School is a public school in Ironton, Ohio — a small community in Lawrence County in southern Ohio — serving about 325 students in grades 9–12 as part of the Rock Hill Local district. In 2025–2026 it ranked 600th of 795 Ohio high schools (25th percentile, 1 star), and the district ranked 544th of 773 (30th percentile, 1 star). The school has sat in the bottom quarter of Ohio high schools for roughly a decade, with percentiles between 17 and 31.

Nearby, Wheelersburg High School (79th percentile), South Webster Junior/Senior High School (73rd), Ironton High School (65th) and Chesapeake High School (53rd) all rank well above Rock Hill, which is ahead of only Symmes Valley High School (23rd) and Dawson-Bryant High School (22nd). Subject results are mixed: English II (67.1% proficient) is above the state average of 62.7%, and American History (73.5%) is essentially at the state average (73.2%). Math is the clearest weakness — Geometry is 20.5% proficient against a 43.3% state average, second lowest nearby, and Algebra I is 49.2% versus 61.6% statewide. American Government stands out at 51.2%, far below the 71.6% state average and lowest among nearby schools. Rock Hill also spends $12,403 per student, the most among nearby districts, while Ironton spends $2,802 less and ranks much higher.

There are real strengths. Rock Hill graduates 98.9% of its students, comparable to top nearby schools, and chronic absenteeism fell from 34.9% in 2021–2022 to 16.6% in 2025–2026 — below the district's 24.4% and lower than most nearby schools. The student–teacher ratio is 18. One area to watch: the school's effectiveness rating for special education students fell from the 54th percentile in 2024–2025 to the 5th percentile in 2025–2026. Male students (19th percentile) also rank below female students (30th percentile).
