Summary

Ontario High School consistently ranks among the top high schools in Ohio, with a statewide ranking between 160-200 out of over 800 high schools in recent years. The school has maintained a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger, indicating strong academic performance. Ontario High School students consistently outperform the state average on Ohio State Tests across various subjects, and the school's four-year graduation rate ranges from 96.3% to 99.4%, significantly higher than the state average. When compared to nearby high schools like Madison High School, Shelby High School, and Lexington High School, Ontario High School generally outperforms them on key metrics such as test scores and graduation rates.

The school's ability to perform well across different student subgroups, including traditionally underserved populations, is a notable strength. However, the school's chronic absenteeism rates have been increasing in recent years, reaching 15.5% in the 2024-2025 school year, which is an area the school may want to monitor and address to ensure continued high academic achievement.
