Summary
Hudson High School is a public 9–12 school in Hudson, Ohio, serving 1,421 students in the Hudson City district and ranking among the top high schools in the state. In 2025–2026 it placed #14 of 795 Ohio high schools — the 98th percentile, with a 5-star rating — while the Hudson City district ranked #14 of 773 districts, also 98th percentile and 5 stars. That top-2% position has been stable for years: #15 the year before, #7 in 2023–2024, and 5 stars in every recent year. The graduation rate is 97.6% in 2025–2026.
Compared with nearby high schools, Hudson has the strongest statewide rank: #14, ahead of Aurora High School (#20) and Solon High School (#33), and well ahead of Twinsburg High School (#104), Theodore Roosevelt High School (#140), Nordonia High School (#155), Stow-Munroe Falls High School (#200), Streetsboro High School (#298), and Woodridge High School (#306). Proficiency on Ohio State Tests is far above state averages in every subject — from 87.0% in Geometry to 97.4% in American Government, roughly 24 to 44 points higher than the state. Hudson leads nearby schools in Geometry and Algebra I and is second in Government, History, Biology, and English II, a balance that helps explain its overall rank. Its 97.6% graduation rate is strong but slightly below Twinsburg (99.3%) and Solon (98.9%), and its chronic absenteeism rate of 13.7% is higher than the district's 8.8%, yet lower than most nearby schools, including Theodore Roosevelt High School (32.0%).
Subgroup performance is broadly excellent: female students rank #1 of 763 statewide, special education students #3 of 575, and low-income students #19 of 761, all with 5 stars. Areas to watch are the absenteeism gap versus the district, free/reduced-lunch rates that have risen from 4.58% in 2022–2023 to 8.44% in 2024–2025 (still the lowest among nearby traditional high schools), and Geometry and Algebra I proficiency at the school (87.0% and 91.6%) trailing the district aggregate (89.5% and 95.1%) while still leading nearby peers. The student-teacher ratio of 15.2 is lower than most nearby high schools.
