Summary

Upper Sandusky High School is a public high school serving 577 students in grades 9-12 in Upper Sandusky, Ohio, which is part of the Upper Sandusky Exempted Village School District. The school has consistently maintained high 4-year graduation rates, ranging from 90.1% to 95.0% over the past few years, which is on par with or slightly higher than nearby schools. Upper Sandusky High School students generally perform better than the state average on the Ohio State Tests across various subjects, including American Government, American History, Biology, English II, and Geometry.

One area where the school stands out is in serving its gifted and talented student population. Upper Sandusky High School has ranked among the top 20 high schools in Ohio for this student group in recent years, earning 5-star ratings from SchoolDigger. However, the school's performance in serving its special education population is mixed, ranking in the middle to lower range compared to other Ohio high schools in this student group. Additionally, the school has a slightly higher student-teacher ratio (19.3) compared to some nearby schools, which may impact the level of individual attention students receive.

While Upper Sandusky High School has a relatively lower percentage of students from low socioeconomic backgrounds compared to some nearby schools, the school's student population is predominantly White, with the Hispanic student population ranking lower compared to the state average. This is in contrast to schools like Elgin High School, which has a more diverse student body. Overall, Upper Sandusky High School appears to be a strong-performing school, but there may be opportunities to further address chronic absenteeism rates and support for special education and socioeconomically disadvantaged students.
