Summary

Ontario High School is a grades 9–12 public high school in Mansfield, Ohio, serving about 540 students as part of the Ontario Local district. It ranks 128th of 795 Ohio high schools in 2025–2026 — the 84th percentile with 4 stars — the school's best showing since 2015–2016 and part of a strong run in the 77th–84th percentile range since 2017–2018. The district ranks 149th of 773 statewide.

Academically, Ontario scores above the Ohio average in every reported End-of-Course subject. English II proficiency is 87.8%, American History 92.6%, and Algebra I 80.0% — each the strongest among nearby schools such as Northmor High School, Lexington High School, and Shelby High School. Biology (77.3%) and Geometry (58.0%) beat the state but trail those same neighbors. The graduation rate is 98.7%, and chronic absenteeism is 9.3% — the lowest of any comparison school here, and well below Madison High School (26.4%) and Mansfield Senior High School (29.8%).

Notably, Ontario achieves these results with $8,563 in per-student spending (2018–2019), less than most neighbors, and a higher student/teacher ratio of 18.2. Trends are moving in the right direction: absenteeism dropped from 15.5% the prior year, and English II and history scores rose sharply. Results for lower-income students (88th percentile) and special education students (70th percentile, up from 48th) are particular bright spots. Areas to watch are Geometry and Biology relative to the top neighboring schools, plus a few student groups whose results are more modest.
