Summary

Preble Shawnee High School is a small public high school in rural Camden, Ohio, serving about 345 students in grades 9–12 as part of the Preble Shawnee Local district. In 2025–2026 it ranks 570th of 795 Ohio high schools — the 28th percentile — with a 1-star rating, down from the 45th percentile in 2024–2025 and the 48th percentile in 2023–2024; the school last reached 3 stars and the 55th percentile in 2015–2016. It serves a very economically disadvantaged population, reporting 99.13% free/reduced lunch in 2024–2025, with $9,007 per-student spending (2018–2019) and a favorable student-teacher ratio of 11.6.

Academically the picture is uneven. Social studies is a strength: American Government 76.6% proficient versus the state's 71.6%, and American History 73.3% against 73.2%. Biology (59.4% vs. 67.0%) and English II (60.2% vs. 62.7%) are modestly below state. Math is the clear weakness: Geometry at 29.4% compared with the state's 43.3%, and Algebra I at 14.7% versus 61.6% statewide and 34.8% in the district — the lowest among nearby high schools, including Carlisle High School (67.4%), Valley View High School (72.4%), Eaton High School (24.7%), and Twin Valley South High School (16.7%). Graduation is a bright spot at 97.0%, better than Valley View, Eaton, Edgewood High School, Twin Valley South, and Middletown High School. Chronic absenteeism improved to 20.1% from 29.9% in 2022–2023, though it stays above the district's 14.3%.

Locally, Preble Shawnee trails Valley View (79th percentile, 4 stars), Carlisle (58th, 3 stars), Eaton (48th, 2 stars), and Madison High School (45th, 2 stars); it is roughly level with Dixie High School, Edgewood, and Twin Valley South, and ahead of New Miami High School and Middletown. Notably, Madison serves 80.59% free/reduced-lunch students yet posts higher Algebra I (50.5%) and Geometry (44.4%) proficiency. Special education students are a relative strength at the 41st percentile (2 stars), while gifted students have ranked between the 10th and 33rd percentiles in available years.
