Summary

Fort Recovery High School is a 9–12 public high school serving 294 students in the Fort Recovery Local district in the small western Ohio town of Fort Recovery, and it is the only high school in its district, so school and district figures are essentially the same.

By state standards, this is a top-tier school. It ranks 21st of 795 Ohio high schools — the 97th percentile, with a 5-star rating — and its district ranks 27th of 773. That is not a one-year spike: the school has climbed steadily from a 4-star, high-80s-percentile school in the mid-2010s into 5-star territory every year since 2020–2021. On the 2025–2026 end-of-course exams, about 92% of students scored proficient across six subjects, compared with roughly 63% statewide. Geometry stands out at 88.1% proficient versus 43.3% for Ohio, and American History posted 100%. English II, at 81.7%, is still about 19 points above the state but is consistently the school's lowest exam. The graduation rate reached 100%, and chronic absenteeism fell to 4.1% — about half the prior year, and far below the 18–20% reported by nearby Celina High School, Parkway High School and Mississinawa Valley Junior/Senior High School.

Among nearby schools, Marion Local High School is the regional benchmark, scoring 96–100% on every exam and out-performing Fort Recovery in five of six subjects, while St Henry High School is essentially tied with Fort Recovery overall. Fort Recovery sits comfortably ahead of the larger schools in the area. It achieves these results at below-average spending — $9,437 per student in the one reported year — and its low-income students ranked 4th of 822 Ohio schools in 2023–2024, with every reported student subgroup at or above the 89th percentile. One item to watch: free/reduced-price lunch has risen three straight years, to about 14%.
