Summary

Ottoville High School is a public school in the small northwest Ohio village of Ottoville, serving grades 7–12 with 201 students as part of Ottoville Local, a district that ranks 28th out of 773 Ohio districts. The school ranks 34th out of 795 Ohio high schools in 2025–2026 — the 96th percentile, with 5 stars — and this is not a one-year spike: it has placed as high as 22nd (2020–2021) and has never fallen below the 85th percentile in the available history.

Academically, students scored above the state average in every reported subject in 2025–2026, averaging roughly 26 percentage points higher. Standouts include Algebra I (96.7%), Biology (93.2%), American Government (91.9%), American History (90.7%), and 8th-grade mathematics (90.0%). Among nearby schools, only Kalida High School (42nd) comes close overall; Kalida leads in 8th-grade English language arts (92.3% vs. 76.7%) and Geometry (84.0% vs. 74.5%), while Ottoville leads in Algebra I and Biology. Fort Jennings High School edges Ottoville in 8th-grade math and American History but trails well behind in Geometry and Algebra I. Columbus Grove High School and Van Wert High School trail in most or all tested subjects. Graduation has been 100% for five straight years, and chronic absenteeism dropped from 12.1% to 3.3%.

Class sizes are small, with a 12.2 student-to-teacher ratio, and per-student spending was $13,563 (2018–2019), higher than comparable nearby schools. About 35.32% of students qualified for free or reduced lunch in 2024–2025. Male students rank 17th of 765 statewide (98th percentile), while female students rank 119th of 763 (84th percentile). The relative soft spots — 8th-grade ELA and Geometry — still sit well above state averages.
