Summary

Nordonia High School is a public school serving grades 9–12 in Macedonia, Ohio, a suburban community in the Akron–Cleveland area, with 1,223 students. It belongs to the Nordonia Hills City district, which ranks 85th of 773 Ohio districts (89th percentile, 4 stars). In 2025–2026, the high school ranked 155th of 795 Ohio high schools (81st percentile, 4 stars), continuing a long run of 4-star results, and its graduation rate was 97.7%, above the district's 96.1%.

On 2025–2026 state End-of-Course exams, Nordonia outperformed the state in five of six subjects, often by wide margins: Biology 86.3% vs 67.0%, English II 84.4% vs 62.7%, and Geometry 66.8% vs 43.3%. Algebra I is the exception and the school's clearest weak spot: 59.4%, below the state (61.6%) and 20.1 points behind its own district (79.5%), though it improved from 45.6% a year earlier. Among neighbors, Nordonia beats Woodridge High School in all six subjects and far outpaces Maple Heights High School and Bedford High School, but trails Hudson High School, Solon High School, and Brecksville-Broadview Heights High School in every subject, and trails Twinsburg High School in Government, History, and Algebra I.

Chronic absenteeism is the other notable challenge: 21.1% in 2025–2026, a 7.3-point gap above the district's 13.8%. That is better than Woodridge (24.8%), Maple Heights (52.5%), and Bedford (59.0%), but worse than Twinsburg (19.2%), Brecksville (14.7%), Hudson (13.7%), and Solon (9.9%). Subgroup results are a bright spot: homeless students ranked in the 96th percentile, African American students 89th, multi-racial students 88th, special education students 88th, and low-income students 80th. With a free/reduced lunch rate of 9.98%, mid-range spending, and a student-teacher ratio of 17, Nordonia reads as a solidly above-average school whose main opportunities lie in Algebra I and attendance.
