Summary

Boardman High School is a large public high school serving grades 9–12 in the Boardman Local district at 7777 Glenwood Ave in Youngstown, OH, with 1,005 students. In 2025–2026 it ranked 203rd of 795 Ohio high schools — the 74th percentile, earning 4 stars. That places it in the top quarter statewide, though its history shows a peak of 92nd percentile (5 stars) in 2016–2017, an 85th-percentile high in 2024–2025, and a drop back to 74th this year.

Academically, Boardman scores above Ohio averages in every End-of-Course subject. Its strengths are American History (90.4) and American Government (83.7), and Geometry (64.0) sits nearly 21 points above the state's 43.3. Algebra I is the clear weak spot: 63.2, only 1.6 points above the state and below the district's 68.9, and well behind nearby Canfield High School (88.7) and Poland Seminary High School (88.0). Canfield and South Range High School generally outperform Boardman in most subjects. Still, Boardman is far ahead of nearby urban and charter schools such as Chaney High.

Boardman's graduation rate has climbed steadily to 97.4% in 2025–2026, comparable to South Range, Canfield and Poland. The most visible concern is chronic absenteeism: 27.3% in 2025–2026, above the district's 20.1% and far above South Range's 10.4% and Canfield's 19.2%. Notably, 54.93% of students qualified for free/reduced lunch in 2024–2025 — much higher than Canfield, Poland or South Range — and Boardman's low-income students ranked in the 81st percentile in 2025–2026 (91st the two prior years), a strong effectiveness signal. Subgroup ranks for African American, Special Education and Multi-racial students were lower this year, and the 2025–2026 score declines spanned several subjects, so these are worth monitoring.
