Summary

Genoa Area High School is a public school serving grades 9–12 in Genoa, Ohio, a small community in Ottawa County, with 369 students enrolled in the Genoa Area Local district. Overall, it is a solidly above-average school: in 2025–2026 it ranked 301 of 795 Ohio high schools (62nd percentile, 3 stars), while the district ranked 218 of 773 (72nd percentile, 4 stars). Its graduation rate is strong at 95.5%, and it scored above the state in all six reported End-of-Course subjects, with its biggest margins in American Government (85.8% vs. 71.6% statewide), Biology (79.3% vs. 67.0%), and Geometry (53.8% vs. 43.3%).

Compared with nearby schools, Genoa sits behind Oak Harbor High School (89th percentile, 99.2% graduation rate) but ahead of Northwood High School, Woodmore High School, Clay High School, Rossford High School, Lake High School, Waite High School, and Maritime Academy of Toledo The. Genoa's Government score was actually the highest among these neighbors, edging out Oak Harbor. Genoa's chronic absenteeism (19.8%) is lower than most nearby schools, though higher than its own district's 13.9% and Oak Harbor's 13.1%. American History (75.6%) and English II (67.5%) are above state but softer than several neighbors. Notably, Genoa reports lower per-student spending ($9,299) than most nearby districts while still performing above the state in every subject.

A few things worth watching: the school slipped from 76th percentile (4 stars) in 2024–2025 to 62nd in 2025–2026, and chronic absenteeism rose from 15.4% to 19.8%. Female students ranked at the 80th percentile versus 45th for male students, and special education students have stayed near the 45th percentile each recent year. Algebra I is an oddity — 68.9% at the high school versus 77.0% for the district, a gap that repeats every year.
