Summary

Jackson-Milton High School is a small, rural-suburban public school serving about 170 students in grades 9–12 in North Jackson, Ohio, roughly 10 miles northwest of Youngstown, and it is the only high school in the Jackson-Milton Local district. In 2025–26 it ranked 153rd of 795 Ohio high schools (81st percentile, 4 stars), while the district overall ranked 131st of 773 (83rd percentile, 4 stars) — a notably stable record whose only 5-star year came in 2022–23.

Academically, the school clears the state average in every tested subject: English II 82.9 versus 62.7 statewide, American History 88.2 versus 73.2, Biology 82.4 versus 67.0, Algebra I 75.8 versus 61.6, Geometry 61.1 versus 43.3, and American Government 80.6 versus 71.6. Locally, it ranks 2nd of nine nearby schools in English II and roughly level with Lordstown High School and Mineral Ridge High School, but Canfield High School outperforms it in every subject. It sits clearly ahead of Fitch High School, Southeast High School, Newton Falls High School, and McKinley High School. Its 98.4% graduation rate is among the best in the area. The main soft spot is chronic absenteeism at 26.1%, which runs persistently about 6–8 points above its own district even after falling sharply from 35.9% in 2021–22.

Most impressive is how the school serves its low-income students: it ranked 42nd of 761 Ohio schools (94th percentile, 5 stars) for that group in 2025–26, far above its overall standing. Math is the weaker area — Geometry is consistently its lowest subject, and Algebra I dropped from 90.7% to 75.8% in 2025–26. With only about 170 students, single-year swings should be watched rather than assumed permanent. The bottom line: a small, well-funded school with above-state results, near-universal graduation, and standout outcomes for low-income students.
