Academically, every school here performs well above state averages. Chardon High School ranked 23rd of 795 Ohio high schools (97th percentile, 5 stars) in 2025–26, improving from 52nd in 2023–24, and its 96.9% graduation rate matches the district. It posts exceptional results in American History (97.3%), Biology (96.3%), and Algebra I (93.8%), but also has the group's highest chronic absenteeism at 24.1%, compared with 17.7% district-wide. Chardon Middle School ranked 38th of 1,046 middle schools (96th percentile, 5 stars) and posted 100% proficiency in Math 8 and Algebra I in both 2024–25 and 2025–26, plus 98.3% in ELA 8, while holding the lowest student-teacher ratio (16.6). Keep in mind that 8th-grade results are reported at both the middle and high school, so those comparisons are not fully apples-to-apples.
Among the elementaries, Park Elementary School leads in reading with 3rd-grade ELA at 95.8% and has the lowest chronic absenteeism at 10.8%. Munson Elementary School serves the highest share of students qualifying for free/reduced lunch (31.51%) yet still posts Math 3 at 84.1% and ELA 3 at 88.4%, and its historical ranks placed it among Ohio's top 1–3% of elementary schools. Averaged across their reported tests, all four schools beat state averages by roughly 23 to 28 points. The main watch items are high-school absenteeism and its relatively high student-teacher ratio of 21.6.
