Summary

Old Fort High School is a small public school serving 264 students in grades 7–12 in Tiffin, Ohio, as part of the Old Fort Local district. In 2025–2026 it ranked 195th of 795 Ohio high schools — the 75th percentile with 4 stars — while the district ranked 205th of 773 districts. Among nearby comprehensive high schools, only Hopewell-Loudon Local High School (82nd percentile) ranks higher; Old Fort outranks Columbian High School, Clyde High School, Fremont Ross High School, and Lakota High School. Graduation rates are excellent: 100.0% in 2025–2026, 98.4% the prior year, and 96.4% the year before. Its student-teacher ratio improved from 16.2 to 12.8, better than most nearby high schools.

Test results are a major strength. In 2025–2026 Old Fort scored above the Ohio average in all 11 reported state tests, by roughly 15.2 percentage points on average. Highlights include American History at 90.9% versus 73.2% statewide, English II at 82.5% versus 62.7%, 8th Grade Science at 83.3%, and Geometry at 60.0% — the highest Geometry rate among nearby comparison schools. Algebra I (66.7%) is above state but trails Hopewell-Loudon's 92.4% and Columbian's 74.4%. As at many small schools, individual subject results swing widely from year to year, so multi-year trends are more useful than any single year.

The clearest warning sign is chronic absenteeism, which rose to 17.2% in 2025–2026 from 9.8% the year before and is above the district's 11.0% — though still lower than Columbian, Clyde, and Fremont Ross. The school's effectiveness with students from lower-income families and with female students stood out in the latest year, both earning 4 stars, after lower-income results dipped in 2024–2025. Per-student spending of $10,376 (2018–2019) was the highest among nearby schools with reported spending. Specialized settings such as Technology Center, Vanguard Technical Center, and Buckeye Community School - Fremont serve different missions and are not directly comparable.
